| 1 | I don't think it needs the word quest | |
| 2 | I don't really like the word quest added in | |
| 3 | I don't think the word Quest helps | |
| 4 | I prefer book titles to be shorter and more succinct, and I don't think adding the word "quest" into the title really does anything to make it more understandable or more catchy. | |
| 5 | The word "quest" just seems superfluous and is confusing. The shorter title communicates the same exact idea. | |
| 6 | The "quest" is unnecessary and awkward to say | |
| 7 | I chose A because it was just a little bit shorter and still made the point. It still grabbed my attention. | |
| 8 | it's a shorter and more punchy title that is quick to read and grasp | |
| 9 | Quest seems like a superfluous word here. | |
| 10 | anything with pirate in the title implies a quest of sorts. just feel the word ain't needed | |
| 11 | A is more concise and holds my attention | |
| 12 | I don't like the inclusion of Quest in the title. Not sure why, just a turn off. | |
| 13 | Most likely, you'll only pick up a book if it has an intriguing title and cover design.In the hook, you grab your reader's attention with a memorable story or fact or question. | |
| 14 | I don't like the word Quest in the title. Keep it simple for the buyer | |
| 15 | The use of the word quest is too much | |
| 16 | I feel like Option B comes across as a bit childish and immature by adding the word 'Quest'. It doesn't really need to be there in the first place. | |
| 17 | The title is already long enough. Adding Quest is not needed and does not read well. | |
| 18 | It's shorter, more direct and Quest doesn't add anything to the title | |
| 19 | I feel like Quest is not needed to get the point of the title across. | |
| 20 | Quest sounds like a bad Role Playing Game and not an interesting book. | |
| 21 | The added "Quest" just makes the title seem clunky to me. | |
| 22 | You don't need to word Quest in the title. | |
| 23 | The extra word "Quest" is not needed. | |
| 24 | I like the way this one flows better. Its a pretty long title and I think taking the 1 word out helps. | |
| 25 | Sky Pirate Quest: The Treasure of a Thousand Kings is very wordy. Also, the title flows better without quest in the name. | |
| 26 | I think it is a little shorter and to the point and that is desirable to me. | |
| 27 | Sky Pirate kind of sounds like a joke, so Quest makes it sound more serious | |
| 28 | B sounds too much like a hokey fantasy novel with a half naked woman on the cover. | |
| 29 | Sky Pirate is quick and snappy, straight to the point, and sounds like the better main title. | |
| 30 | I like my choice because it's shorter and easier to say. I think a good alternative would be "Sky Quest", though it takes the pirate aspect out of it. | |
| 31 | The more succinct title grabs my attention better. The word Quest in option B makes the title read awkwardly in my head. | |
| 32 | The quest makes me seem like it is longer then it possibly is. Also quest denotes some difficulty. Title without it changes nothing | |
| 33 | Option B seems to be on the borderline of being redundant. Pirates are on quests, or they would not be pirates. | |

| 1 | It's descriptive and to the point. | |

| 3 | Definitely B. Quest just makes you want to know more. | |
| 4 | Quest makes it sound more like an adventure | |
| 5 | I chose B because the wording of Quest makes it sound adventurous. | |

| 8 | This one sounds more intriguing. | |
| 9 | I like how it has Quest and seems more of an adventure. | |

| 12 | Option A is best things | |
| 13 | the word quest makes it sound like there will be more adventure! i would read this one! | |
