Book titles that ring true

It might not surprise my readers that my book titles always have a double meaning. Not only do they connect with the story in some way, be a powerful comment by a character, or be used to capture a potential reader. My book titles, especially in the last few years. have been picked with the worldview in mind. 

Here are some quick examples:


Everybody Wants to Rule the World is my 18th book, the 13th in my Hernandez series. As expected, a title like this isn't by accident. It comes back to not only the plot but also how our world looks right now. If you look around, whether it be in politics or otherwise, there are a lot of mega powers attempting to push their way to the top to control. And believe me, this is not for the greater good. 


Psychopaths Rule the World was released a few years ago, and at the time, it was a comment I made to a friend regarding world events. He had been questioning what would possess certain people to make the decisions. "Because psychopaths rule the world" was my answer, and even now, I stick by that reply.


Loyalty Above All (there are no exceptions) isn't the only theme in my
Hernandez series
but also something I strongly believe in. If we don't have loyalty or a sense of dedication, then what do we have? And can you ever really trust someone who isn't loyal to you?
