Saturday Word Play: This Halloween, Heads Will Roll (And With a Title Like This, So Will Eyes)

Happy Halloween everyone! Here's hoping you all get sugar rushes tonight. But, when you crash, sit back and try this week's game. I'll give you the titles of ten books that feature headless characters or characters that get decapitated-- except I've also put the titles in the guillotine. Can you still recognize them? (Clicking on the images will make them a little bigger.)

As always, feel free to try all ten at home, but only answer one in the comment section below so that 9 more people can play along.

1. William Shakespeare




2. J. K. Rowling



3. Washington Irving


4. Vladimir Nabokov




5. R. L. Stine



6. Adam Roberts
