	AML-List Review: On My Way to Paradise
		I have picked up many of Wolverton's novels in used books stores over the years after reading his praises from the list's many SF fans and writers, and I have enjoyed a few short stories of his I have come across.
		In particular Wolverton seems to use the quest from Lord of the Rings as a model.
		Wolverton delves into the subject about as well as any Mormon author I have read.

	Amazon.de: Star Wars. The Courtship of Princess Leia: English Books: Dave Wolverton (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Wolverton (Serpent Catch) attempts to add nuance and intrigue to the smash-bang atmosphere that propelled to the stratosphere the Star War movies and Timothy Zahn's three books set in that universe.
		Wolverton is not as comfortable with the Star Wars universe as Timothy Zahn, but he manages to offer the mighty host of SW fans good entertainment.
		Wolverton wants to write about his perverse sexual fantasies but a) I wish he'd keep them out of the Star Wars universe and b) he should really try to achieve some sort of better understanding of the way women think and act before attempting to write a novel about them.

	AML-List Review: Serpent Catch
		Wolverton, an LDS author with close ties to several AML-List members (and the topic of one of Scott Parkin's columns a month or two ago), creates a story in which a young man's choice among possible futures hinges on his responses to a series of figures who stand as potential fathers for him.
		Certainly there are many Mormon readers for which his fiction is not well suited: Wolverton has worked as a prison guard, and his depictions of violence reflect his firsthand knowledge of just how brutal people can be to each other.
		What is remarkable is the way that, despite this violence, his characters remain committed to living and loving, how they reject despair and, to use the metaphor of the ancient Pwi, "sing their world" into an existence of joy.

	interrogation report: Dave Wolverton, The Golden Queen (book review) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Everynne is the clone of the late, defeated wearer of the Omni-mind, and she is on a quest with her bodyguard to defeat the Dronon queen through ritual combat.
		Wolverton easily describes the interesting technology that he has created, but often the characters make judgements or guesses about information that should be available through the digital assistants most of the characters wear.
		Originally published using the author's real name Dave Wolverton and as two volumes, this being the first volume, ISBN 0-81255-255-5.

	Novel Reflections: Dave Wolverton's On My Way To Paradise Summary
		Perfecto believes that all evil comes from territorialism, that all things that people do wrong to each other are because they are invading each other's territory, and that chimeras, with their heightened territorialism, are the only ones who truly understand this.
		The journey to Baker is supposed to take two years, but Wolverton uses a neat plot device so that we don't have to cover that time in the story, Angelo is put into cryostasis after a riot in the ship two weeks into the voyage.
		The clash of two cultures was described convincingly and with a pointed humour, and Angelo's constant analysis of his own thoughts with regard to them was a good way to illustrate some of the more abstract areas of the issue.

	Buy The Courtship of Princess Leia (Star Wars) -
		Dave Wolverton definitely knew what he was doing when he wrote this book!
		Her behaviour is completely irrational, unbelievable, unreasonable, bitchy, etc....proving the fact that Dave Wolverton has no clue when it comes to women, a trait he has in common with a certain Robert Jordan (alright, I won't mention him again).
		My only consolation is that Dave Wolverton has not been allowed within ten yards of a Star Wars typewriter since the disaster of "Courtship".

	GFA Books
		Here we have two unrecognizable, shrill, unpleasant people, and the marriage that many fans looked forward to, is practically a throw away at the end of a childish, fan-boy notion of a bodice-ripper.
		Author Dave Wolverton created Zsinj, but it took prequel books by Aaron Allston to make him a worthy adversary.
		Although Zsinj was Wolverton's "baby", the final chapter in the Warlord's saga is a big let-down once you've met him in Allston's incarnation.
