I keep coming across books with 'Moonlight' in the title. One of them is a book that I haven't even seen yet (Sophie Masson's Moonlight and Ashes) and one looks as if it ought to have 'moonlight' in the title, but deceptively doesn't ("Midnight and Moonshine" - Angela Slatter and Lisa Hannett's forthcoming work).
All this has messed with my brain and I find myself developing titles for various writers. "Murder in Moonlight" would be by Dorothy Sayers and "Moonlight, moonflight" might be an Anne McCaffrey. "Mystical Moonlight" would be a new Mercedes Lackey and "Mayhem by Moonlight" would be Elinor M Brent-Dyer. "Muddy Moonlight," would be by me, I think, and "Muck by moonlight" would be grunge-steampunk by an author I have not yet read (but want to - grunge steampunk with a large dollop of daftness is my kind of book - hurry up and write 'Muck by moonlight,' someone!). 'Mirkwood by moonlight' is by JRRT, of course, and 'Malheureusement, Moonlight' by a literary author (who I shall not name) writing in the 1950s.
Can anyone add to the list?
