What We Did to Ask Your Opinion

Please note that I am aware that most of you have not read this book, so you are not being asked to comment on whether the title works well for the specific book I've written. (Although if you have read it, feel free to e-mail me with opinions on how the title worked for you.)

[Poll #1294645]

Also, if you ran across a book called What We Did to Save the Kingdom, what, if any, preconceptions would you have about it? (Funny, serious, high fantasy, swashbuckling, sword-wielding protagonist, lots of boats, whatever.)

Hmmm, my first reaction (and it's first thing in the morning for me) is that it would be something along the lines of the "Left Behind" books, some sort of "Kingdom of Heaven" crap. And I would avoid it like the plague, unless I saw a very familiar author's name. Even then, I might be afraid that they had turned or come out as fundie. But I guess that's just me, looking at the rest of the comments. And if the cover was silly, I probably wouldn't jump to that conclusion.

God's Kingdom doesn't need saving. So you'd be safe.
