Lucy K Names

I had titles for the 7 books ages ago, but I have happily changed the ones I thought were absolutely cheesy:

Here's the old list-
Lucy Knickleback and the Mystic's Heart (still the same)
Lucy Knickleback and the Dungeons of Disaster (Changed)
Lucy Knickleback and the Fire of Hell (still the same)
Lucy Knickleback and the Kidnappers (Changed- this was so corny)
Lucy Knickleback and the Magic Bookshelf (SOOOO CORNY! Changed)
Lucy Knickleback and the Full Moon Fever (Changed)
Lucy Knickleback and the Last Showdown (Changed)

Here's the updated list-
Lucy Knickleback 1: The Mystic's Heart
Lucy Knickleback 2: The Dungeons of Death
Lucy Knickleback 3: The Fire of Hell
Lucy Knickleback 4: The Genii Loci
Lucy Knickleback 5: The Underworld
Lucy Knickleback 6: The Werewolf's Curse
Lucy Knickleback 7: The Final Battle (Considering changing)

I changed the 'and the' bit cos I thought that was too like Harry Potter.

Do you think it's better now I've changed them?

I know nothing of horror so I confess I liked the titles to both lists. But for me, I would check somehow to see if these titles are already being used or anything really close and try to make mine as original as possible. Then bounce that new list off a bunch of people to whom reading and watching horror or your type of genre is their life. You will get some really good criticism from a group that are all potential buyers. I love lucy knickleback, that is classy.

Thankyou, and the genre is supposed to be Action, Adventure, Comedy, Horror, Romance etc. all rolled into one. I have thought of changing them apart from the first one since I am 3/4 finished with it and I have AuthorHouse interested in the book so hoefully it will be good enough
