"Humor really doesn't get better than this. Dorsey has a style all to his own that is simply not replicated anywhere." "Serge and Coleman are a match made in heaven and I am still laughing ... truly a great read and I can't wait to delve into more of Dorsey's work." "This is Pulp Fiction on steroids with an acid tab chaser. There is insanity on every page and every page is a good time. Twists and turns, and some of the most creative homicidal mayhem I have ever read." "... for pure pleasure and entertainment you just can't beat the maniacal style of the Serge Storm series."Editorial reviews: "Hilarious. ... Serge Storms is, hands down, one of the most original and just-plain-captivating characters in modern crime fiction." Booklist "Entertaining ... funny ... irreverent and loving at the same time ... [Dorsey] leaves the reader gasping for breath." Washington Post Book World "The characters in Tim Dorsey's raucous novel would be shot on sight in any other state."
