Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Scathing humor strips the pretense off its targets like a hurricane in bestseller Dorsey's rapid-fire ninth thriller. Last seen in The Big Bamboo (2006), serial killer Serge A. Storms, who seems like all of the Marx brothers rolled into one, rumbles across Florida in a stolen Hummer with his usually drunk or stoned friend, Coleman. Serge follows one hurricane after another, driving in the relatively safe eye of the storm, pointing out fascinating bits of Florida history and only killing those who truly deserve it. That would include the guy in the car next to you blasting his music as well as the person price-gouging hurricane victims. The murders are accomplished in appropriately bizarre, if not graphic, fashion. As Serge evades law enforcement and perennial nemesis Agent Mahoney, his latest road trip allows him to skewer everything from President Bush to fast food establishments, with particular emphasis given to the foibles of the media (newspapers) for which Dorsey once worked. 13-city author tour. (Feb.)

One of the best at exposing societys absurdities, Tim Dorsey does it again with HURRICANE PUNCH. Serge A. Storms, a serious whack-job serial killer, and his supremely stoned sidekick, Coleman, are on the road again, this time chasing hurricanes in Florida. Oliver Wymans performance offers up a rollicking good time for fans of this dynamic duo. Theres a serial killer on the loose whos getting all the headlines, and Serge is outraged by comparisons to his work. Serge has scruples, after all. He only kills those who need killing, like the boor who wont turn down his car stereo or the ghoul selling bags of ice to hurricane victims. Wymans performance provides laugh-out-loud moments, but be warned: Dorseys offbeat humor may offend those with delicate sensibilities. S.J.H.
