Gormenghast is also commonly used in reference to this series, even though the castle is not present in Titus Alone. In fact, Peake intended to write a "biography" of protagonist Titus Groan, not the castle's history, so it would make more sense to name the series after him. (In fact, an earlier collected edition was entitled The Titus Books).
