Product Description:
Why is everyone rushing to flee Tampa on a cruise ship to hell?
Serge is back with a bullet, torn between homicide and souvenirs. So is Coleman, torn between getting hammered and getting more hammered. Then there's good ol' Jim Davenport, the E-Team, the Diaz Brothers, and Johnny Vegas, the Accidental Virgin, cranking up the fevered action as the pot boils over on a street called Lobster Lane.
It's reunion time in the Sunshine State, and we're not just talking the family jamboree of that blood-soaked criminal clan, the McGraws, whose nastiest, meanest member is finally released from prison and heads south bent on revenge. On top of it all, the government is covering up a growing list of mysterious victims across Florida who may or may not be connected to a nefarious plot being hatched against national security.
But wait! There's more on the horizon! Who is the oddly familiar femme fatale named Rachael? Is Serge wrong that guns, drugs, and strippers don't mix? What sets the Non-Confrontationalists off on a rampage? What finally brings Coleman and Lenny together? Will they succeed in building the biggest bong ever? And can Serge surf a rogue wave to victory?
So batten the hatches, don the life jackets, and take cover as all these questions and more are answered in the latest adventure from the acclaimed author of Hurricane Punch.

Tim Dorsey is something of a guilty pleasure. When he's firing on all cylinders, his novels are outrageously funny, wildly convoluted fun. Inevitably, his novels shift back and forth between high energy fun and jokes or story lines that fall flat. When his novels hit their peaks they feature moments that are laugh-out-loud funny. When they fall flat, they can be tedious. Fortunately Dorsey's rapid fire delivery hits more than it misses.
I wish I could tell you that Dorsey's humour ... Read More

Just finished Atomic Lobster and agree with other positive reviewers. An enjoyable (and unplausible) black satire set in current day Florida. This is my first Dorsey book and as suggested by another reviewer will try to read the series starting at the beginning.
I mention Hiassen in the title of my review because both Dorsey and Hiassen set their satires in contemporary Florida. If, like me, you are somewhat turned off by Hiassen's PC approach you won't find that with Dorsey. He skewers both ... Read More

Tim Dorsey's books are always a good read, Serge & Coleman are a hoot! Look forward to many more adventures.

With all the other books I've been reading of late, I missed that Tim Dorsey had come out with another Serge Storms novel... Atomic Lobster. So long as you know what you're getting into with a Dorsey novel, this is a lot of fun much as the others were.
It's nearly impossible to write a plot summary of a Dorsey novel. There are a number of things going on that seemingly have nothing to do with anything, only to have them intersect a hundred pages later. The main driving plot in this novel ... Read More

When reading a Tim Dorsey book, a lot of things fall to the wayside; attention to family members, attempting to eat at lunch, blogging, and free time, among others. This is directly attributed to the desire to finish the book as quickly as possible. There are so many sub-plots in play, you just *have* to see how it all shakes out. With Atomic Lobster, Tim Dorsey has penned another excellent novel concerning the "serial killer with a wicked sense of humor," Serge Storms.
Serge continues his sightseeing ... Read More
