[Il Penseroso]

2. All Quiet on the Western Front
5. The Red Badge of Courage
6. Call of the Wild
9. Riders of the Purple Sage? (I'm not familiar with this one, though I think it is a band also)

[Pendragon]

3) Fiddler on the roof?

Of course! But a neat way to put it, you gotta admit!:lol:

[Pendragon]

A Clockwork Orange, perhaps?

To be sure, Lady W! I must be more creative! :lol:

[Pendragon]

2. All Quiet on the Western Front
5. The Red Badge of Courage
6. Call of the Wild
9. Riders of the Purple Sage? (I'm not familiar with this one, though I think it is a band also)


Right on them all, IP. Riders of the Purple Sage is a classic western by Zane Grey. :lol:

Put simply, these ten mixed lines have ten well-known books. Figure them out!

1.) The Crimson Colt = The Red Pony
2.) Silence Reigns In The Western Façade = All Quiet on the Western Front
3.) Stradivarius Atop the Shingles = Fiddler on the Roof
4.) Orifice
5.) Vermillion Emblem of Audacity = The Red Badge of Courage

Keep Trying!

[vheissu]

1. The red pony?

10. Heart of darkness?

[Hira]

1. Blood Red Horse?
7. 'To Kill a Mockingbird' is the only book I can think of with a songbird in it.

Am baffled as to what 'Orifice' might refer to.

[barbara0207]

Am baffled as to what 'Orifice' might refer to.

Could it be 'Holes'by Louis Sachar?

[RobinHood3000]

I was wondering the same thing, but then there's that singular/plural question...

[Niamh]

I agree with holes
To kill a mockingbird
The red Pony
and
Heart of Darkness...

[B-Mental]

Cool Idea Pen.

[LadyWentworth]

I feel so stupid now! Now when I see Silence Reigns In The Western Façade, it is so obvious that it is All Quiet on the Western Front. :blush: :p I was thinking To Kill a Mockingbird also, but I wasn't positive (I wasn't sure if there was some book floating around out there that I didn't know existed with a songbird in the title). So, I also agree with that one. :)

[Pendragon]

1. The red pony?

10. Heart of darkness? Right on! Surprised that The Red Pony wasn't first! http://smilies.vidahost.com/otn/ez/ezpi_wink1.gif

[Pendragon]

1. Blood Red Horse?
7. 'To Kill a Mockingbird' is the only book I can think of with a songbird in it.

[Pendragon]

Could it be 'Holes'by Louis Sachar?

Hole is one word that doesn't come up when I run my thesaurus for "orifice", but the book was a famous movie as well as a book at that... http://www.cosgan.de/images/kao/konfus/a050.gif

[Pendragon]

I agree with holes
To kill a mockingbird
The red Pony
and
Heart of Darkness...
The Pony and The Heart

OK with two left, I'll give hints:

change #4 to MAW:

And in number 7: this songbird has an American and European variety which look nothing alike, sing nothing alike, but have the same name and are both called "Redbreast"

Something to do with a robin? Nothing comes to my mind though.

[RobinHood3000]

I wanna say "Rotten Robin," but that sounds too much like a Bobby Darin song...

[Niamh]

Or is it just called "Robin"?

[papayahed]

7. Robinhood?

[RobinHood3000]

Doh!!!

[Niamh]

See i was thinking robinhood as well but hes a good guy not a songbird that goes bad. Which is what rotten robin sounds like... That one still has me stumped.

[Pendragon]

7. Robinhood? Oh, Yeah. A songbird (Robin) gone bad (become a hood, or bad guy) just gives the titile, has nothing to do with Robin Hood's character :D

[Pendragon]

4. Jaws!!

7 completely eludes me...By Peter Benchley! Sure! http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l108/AbsalomKane/Angry_shark_2.gif

If Pen should come up with new ones, I will hold off (the best that I can at least ;) ) and wait for you to answer first. :D

[Hira]

Lol, I didn't know any of the answers except 'To Kill a Mockingbird' ,'Animal Farm' and 'A Light in the Attic'. But they have been answered obviously so well the remaining ... can't really say!:crash:I figure number 5 has got something to do with a ship or a type of a ship or something.

Seven has me stumped. Something to do with black magic, and raising the dead.
I dont know...
Practical Magic by Alice hoffman?
If i think of a better one i'll post it...
or wait...
Is it Frankenstein?
He was a technically a necromancer seeing as he did raise someone from the dead....

[Hira]

I think I will throw this one out there.

Down to two and hints:

#6 means just what it says

#7 break it apart and study each word

[bouquin]

Could #7 be 'The Beautiful and the Damned' ?

[Hira]

6. Soul Music?

[Pendragon]

Could #7 be 'The Beautiful and the Damned' ? Uh, no, and you got my face red by thinking "Unadorned" would be a replacement for beautiful for me! :blush: I can think of plenty of people whom "Unadorned" would give me a gag reflex! :lol: And as to "Necromantic" take the root word "Necro" and see what happens. OK? :alien:

[Pendragon]

6. Soul Music?
No. you are headed into the wrong musical gendre. There is a word for a stiring song meant to inspire, a song that has meaning for a particular group or people, that directly translates "Sacred song". And I told you what it was in all that. ;)

I intend to get harder...:idea:

[Hira]

Good Clue, good clue!

7.The Naked and the Dead?

[Pendragon]

Good Clue, good clue!

7.The Naked and the Dead?Quite so. Unadorned is sadly "naked" and "necromanic" is "dead" and ready to be called up and spoken to in the art of necromancy. People were mislead by the face necromancy is black magic, and fail to remember it requires talking or other interaction with the dead. Thought you might get it! :thumbs_up

Yeah, I took it in that vein too!

Can't think of the other one still, despite you telling everything! Maybe I have never heard of the book. Ever. Someone else will get it right I suppose.

Psalms perhaps?

[Niamh]

these are all completely wrong but i'm going to take a stab at the last one

Old Song?

Hymn (there are at least three books with this title)

Birdsong

heavens song

okay i give up...

[Pendragon]

So this time, I reign as king! http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l108/AbsalomKane/Smilies/King.gif

There is a word for a stiring song meant to inspire, a song that has meaning for a particular group or people, that directly translates "Sacred song". And I told you what it was in all that.

The word is Anthem by Ann Rynd. I did everything but tell you national song, guys... http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l108/AbsalomKane/Four/Mime.gif

[Pendragon]

few guesses for no 4

the devil and miss Prym

The devil and mary ann

*Edit*

Is it Lucifer and the Lord?No. The Book is also a stage play, if that helps.

[Pendragon]

Only five, and we are dead so hints are in order I think:

2. Optimistic Since Servitude (Take word at a time and work on it, the author's initials are BTW)

4. Old Nick and Noah’s Possible Cousin (Also a play, and the author's initials are SVB according to the dictionary)

5. You – He’s (A math problem to solve, but all hinges on another name for minus)

10. Chapel Terra (already established that Terra is "Earth". What is a "chapel?"

11. Resident Young Man (More difficult but still... An older person might call a young man ______. And if you have always been a "resident," you are a _________.


:D :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :D

[papayahed]

11. Native Son



Nick and Nora's possible cousin ........Charles in Charge:lol: ?

[Hira]

2. Up From Slavery?
4.The Devil and Daniel Webster?

[Niamh]

Now i was going to Post the devil and Daniel Webster Last night and i went Nah! Probably not that one either! But it turns out it is. Good on you hira.

[Pendragon]

11. Native Son



Nick and Nora's possible cousin ........Charles in Charge:lol: ?

Give the lady a soggy cigar! for #11 That's NOAH's possible cousin...:p

[Pendragon]

2. Up From Slavery?
4.The Devil and Daniel Webster?
Oh, YES! Booker T Washington's famous novel and Steven Vincent Benet's Book and Play. I had to play the Devil when we did the play in English Lit. in 10th grade. (I summon them, I summon them, appear! Dale who broke men on the wheel, Tech the Pirate, hot from hell, I summon them, appear!) :lol:

The dictionary clue did it, right, Hira? :)

[Pendragon]

I cannot believe you are missing the clues in these two, I cannot make them any plainer: Well. maybe, but it gives away good secrets:



5. (You) ( – ) (He’s) A word in three part's. If you find the right word for the dash, combined with the other words as they are it will name a book

10. Chapel Terra (already established that Terra is "Earth". What is a "chapel?" ( Think Spanish California and Zorro)

[papayahed]

Give the lady a soggy cigar! for #11 That's NOAH's possible cousin...:p


:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: I never learned to read!!!!!

OOOOOH, close! What is this lone hunter? Use your clues!!! http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l108/AbsalomKane/Sherlock.gif

[Niamh]

:lol: so close! Is there a clue in my answer pen?

[Hira]

You are not reading the hint very closely, mes amis, or you have never watched a magician...

Lol, I just ran Babylon on 'figment' and got this (the paragraph below) so I thought perhaps ...


Figment, a small purple dragon, occasionally seen sporting a yellow sweater, is the mascot of the Imagination! pavilion at the Epcot theme park at Walt Disney World Resort. He first appeared in March 1983 in the pavilion's Journey Into Imagination dark ride, in which Dreamfinder, a jolly wizard-like scientist, created him and taught him how to use his imagination. Figment is meant to be the literal embodiment of the phrase "figment of the imagination." He is composed of various elements Dreamfinder found in his travels including two tiny wings, large yellow eyes, the horns of a steer (or dilemma, according to a 1983 appearance on the Today Show), a crocodile's snout, and the childish delight found at a birthday party. In "One Little Spark," Dreamfinder introduces him: "Two tiny wings, eyes big and yellow, horns of a steer, but a lovable fellow. From head to tail, he's royal purple pigment, and there, voila, you've got a Figment."


OOOOOH, close! What is this lone hunter? Use your clues!!! http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l108/AbsalomKane/Sherlock.gif

Oho, I think I got it! But only coz of the lonely hunter part which Niamh guessed so I'll leave it for her, she got as close as that and well its verrrrryyyyy close Niamh now!

[Niamh]

:lol: give me a hint then!:p

And please tell me its not the lone ranger cause then i'd kick myself.

[Hira]

Lol, no.

What is this lonely hunter as Pen says? The nucleus, the nucleus! Just another word for it!

[Niamh]

The cell?
I dont know. go ahead and answer it Hira.
*edit*
Wait... Is it actually "The Cell"? when i think about it, it makes some sense. Nucleus could = Cell, also, stalking could be another term for pacing like "Pacing the cell" and a "cell" can be Isolating. Did i get it right? :D

[Hira]

Nopes:D You don't have to leave 'the lonely hunter', just combine it with a word for nuclues, lol. At least if it is what I think it is.

[Niamh]

well then i'm lost...
So what do you think it is?

[Hira]

Ohkay then ...

The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter!:D

[Niamh]

*slaps forehead* Doh!

[Hira]

Very close, see:D

[Niamh]

:lol: yeah only a heart beat away.... :p weldone Hira.

[Pendragon]

Ohkay then ...

The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter!:D

Oh, my yes! http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l108/AbsalomKane/Smilies/LoveHeart.gif

And since no one seem to know what a Figment of Your Imigination might be called by a Magician (cough!) (Did you ever see David Copperfield by the way, or Siegfried & Roy?) Illusions by Richard Bach is the book and what they preform, but they call it a figment of your imigination, simply illusion.

#8 was written by the author of #6 and features Satan as a black Woodsman who makes his deal with our anti-hero in the woods

#11 was written by the author of #10 during a trip West and on to the Sandwich Isles, known today as Hawaii.

Good Luck

Okay, Pen, I actually had number 8, but I wasn't familiar with the story by W. Irving. It's The Devil and Tom Walker. (although a tom actually a larger drum than say a snare).
10. Roughing It? But I should get a half-point for tying the gruel to Oliver Twist.
You're right though it's much more challenging without the clues.

#13 yes.


11 Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (i googled it. Here it goes with the title "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone" :) )


Yes. There is no book entitled Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone on J.K. Rowlining site.

Outside of the United States, The First Harry Potter book is called The Philosophers Stone as you can see from this book cover.

and here on wiki.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Potter_and_the_Philosopher%27s_Stone:)
If it was a US based site, of course it wouldnt have it. But it is the Actual title used in the majority of the world.

[vheissu]

I never really understood why the changed the title for the US edition. There was an article in a paper once that explained it...seems a bit unnecessary


For N.9 I keep thinking of The Golden bowl by Henry James. But then branch and bowl are not really related words...?

[Niamh]

It was called the sorcerers stone in the US because the publishers didnt think the US would have enough mythological knowledge of what the Philosophers stone was to call it that, so they went with the sorcerers stone instead. But it is believed that J.K regrets giving in to the US publishers over the title and wished she insisted on the Philosophers stone because it makes more sense in the context of the book.

"For N.9 I keep thinking of The Golden bowl by Henry James. But then branch and bowl are not really related words...?[/QUOTE]

I had the same thought process. That's why I came up with Goldfinger, although a finger is hardly a branch. Golden Arm? Golden Bank? I think we need to start teaming up on these because Pen is enjoying his craftiness way too much.:D
Some of these are making me lose sleep.

[Niamh]

I've two guesses for no.9.
The Arrow of gold (conrad)
and
The Golden Bough- Frazer

[PabloQ]

3. The Red and the Black (references to a Roulette wheel?)
6. Little Women ?
7. Robinson Crusoe

[Pendragon]

Sorry for the confusion over the Harry Potter book. I do these from memory, and I thought it was "Philosopher's Stone" from the movies but checked the official site at the last second. There I saw "Sorcorcer's Stone" and the way I worded it made it "Sorcorcer's Stone" as a "Philosopher" is not a "Magician". Sorry. :( Didn't know about the dual titles, I don't read Harry Potter! :p

[Pendragon]

3. The Red and the Black (references to a Roulette wheel?)6. Little Women ?
7. Robinson Crusoe

#3. Um, no, never thought of that. Far simpler. :lol:
#6. Yeah! :lol: 70's speak
#7 Right! :nod: Good Codebreaking!

[Pendragon]

Soo. I'm down to three. My three best deceptions. Oh, how I hate to give up my secrets by hints, but here goes nothing:


2. (Pass) + (Signal)
3. (5) & (20)
4. He Killed Fondly

#2 was also a very good movie as well as a book. Think: to pass something at the table is to _____ it to someone. You signal that it's time for church with a _______. Say the two words fast and you get the name of the book and movie.


3.) Start with 26. Also blockebuster movie and book.

4.) Try another name for fond and another name for killer in that order.

You don get 'em now there's no hope for you... :rolleyes:

[PabloQ]

2. Hannibal (methinks you strained a brain muscle on that one)
4. The Deerslayer (gotta admit it's clever)
3. I guess there's no hope for poor me.:bawling:
I just don't see it.:sick:

[Niamh]

Are you dure its not the deerhunter?

Hey Pen dont worry your little noggin about the HP title.

But http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l108/AbsalomKane/Smilies/King.gif me again, I got you with a very simple code.
3. (5) & (20) (out of 26) Alphabet has 26 letters. #5 is E. Number 20 is T. The book and movie E. T. Gottcha!http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l108/AbsalomKane/Smilies/Grin.gif
