Synopsis

Serge A. Storms is back on the road in the latest zany Florida caper from the “wickedly funny” (Entertainment Weekly) Tim Dorsey.After a long and arduous COVID-19 quarantine, Serge A. Storms is fully vaccinated and ready to hit the road. Along with his condo neighbors, he cooks up a wild plan to celebrate in true Serge fashion: each week, they rent a shuttle van and head out for funky Florida road trips and some serious revelry.Meanwhile, a CIA revenge operation down in Honduras goes very, very wrong. The local liaison hired to help with the mission is the only witness to the disaster, and the CIA quickly sets a black ops contractor on his trail to eliminate him.Forced to flee his home country, the witness lands in Miami with a new identity and passport. But the CIA is still on his tail, pushing him further and further south to the Florida Keys, where he runs into Serge’s convoy. With Florida’s most lovable serial killer involved, the real party is about to get started…

Way Below Pat This is far from Dorsey’s best. I don’t know whether he’s just getting bored with Serge or has run out of ideas but this book and its plot is about as flat as cow urine on a hot rock in the sun. Spoiler Alert: Only two bonus rounds and page after page of Coleman teaching how to take a h......more

It is fitting that I write this review in January for it is in January that I would meet up with Tim Dorsey at one of his book signings. During the early part of the year he would bounce from book store to library to community halls to hold a reading and book signing. I met him for signings in Ft. L......more

And why, for the life of all things reasonable, we find Florida Man books funny with their crackpot characters and plots so preposterous it’s a waste of good hea......more
