Wendy & Lisa influence sci-fi novel

Wendy & Lisa are credited as a major influence on a debut sci-fi/fantasy novel by Eric Durcholz. According to an interview with the author, The Promise of Eden was influenced more by music than anything else. "In fact, many of my short stories were influenced by bootleg Prince recordings," he tells the Amazon.com interviewer. "One of the major themes of TPOE (and the title as well) was extracted from a Wendy and Lisa song."
