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." The New York Times Book Review"Excellent ... I almost exploded with laughter as I read Dorsey''s novel. It''s manic, hysterical, and puts Dorsey well up there with the cream of comic writers who seem to have made Florida the centre for satirizing America in the 21st century." Independent"Twisted hilarity ... a compelling page-turner ... Tim Dorsey is one sick bunny." Belfast News Letter
