    The Wine of Iniquity. A title like that would have me picking up the book even if it's just to see what it's about.

    I think the third one is the most interesting! It puts a sort of sentimental feeling in me, just like most titles with a past tense do. And it puts you into a great tradition of titles that are like that; they're all of course unrelated, but it makes for good titles. Like "The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest," by Steig Larsson, or "The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon," by Stephen King. Things like that. I really like yours!

    As for a second choice, definitely the first one, but I really, really love the third one. I always pick up books with intriguing, unique titles like that.

    Cheers!

    The first.

    The second makes me less likely to pick up the book, as I assume it's a historical novel.

    The third seems to be deliberately echo The Girl Who Played With Fire.

    I think it would be 'Wine of Iniquity'. Mainly because the title seems it might hold some sort romance, passion, mystery, suspense etc. I am a sucker for romance..LOL

    I like the first or third one

    The third one. It makes the story seem more medieval and dark.
