Re: Book Title Game (inspired by Cabin Pressure)
Exactly.
Now this is easy:
"Small son of king"
The little prince. (No idea, utterly clueless.)
"Man turns in to a bug, dies."
(clue: one word, five syllables.)

Re: Book Title Game (inspired by Cabin Pressure)
Oh my brain is not even remotely working as it should... The only thing my mind keeps shouting at me is 'Catcher in the Rye' ... But I'm probably not even close. 
(would like to point out I've never read CITR but this is quite literally all my brain is letting me see when I read that sentence.)

No, not Catcher in the Rye.
It's the title and it is german. Just one word with two symbols.

Steppenwolf
I like the character of Harry Haller. His dark side and the symbolism in it. Reminds me of "Sherlock" a bit. A circus is in there, too. Harry finds his way through laughter and humor.
