I'm reading Wanted and very impressed too. I love reading books set in the same world as games I'm playing. Not sure id enjoy them if they're funny though.
Wanted has top notch space combat (although it stretches the AI tech a bit
).Lave Revolution has quite more ground action and has an extended number of characters.
Now going for my fourth novel - probably going to pick Docking. Or tales. Or Mostly. Or...

So they aren't all comedies? Interesting...

You reviewed Lave Revolution on Amazon yet?
Definitely not! Docking probably has the most direct humour, whilst Mostly Harmless is a lot more character-based humour. A couple of the Tales from the Frontier stories are also humorous in nature.
Nope. They might have humor, but certainly not comedies
Not yet. Soon though
(as well as the other books)
The trouble with humour is that it can be a very personal thing. I suspect that even superstar fiction with humour writers like Douglas Adams or Terry Pratchett's have some people who don't appreciate them.
... Which is a lead in to me struggling a bit with docking. Yeah, I find some bits funny (loved the procedural generation joke), but I am also cringing as I read it. So I suspect that when I do get to the end, it will get a 3 out of 5 from me, at best.

I gotta say Docking is Difficult's humour grated on me at first, I was being very hard on it because I didn't like the title and it first felt like it was trying to hard to be funny.
Then came a point where I was laughing out loud and I totally forgave all and threw away my previous misconceptions.
Very enjoyable bit of theatre by the end, and ended too soon
