Tiger Shrimp Tango

A Novel

De: Tim Dorsey

Narrado por: Oliver Wyman

Determined to save a damsel in distress, the Sunshine State’s favorite serial killer and encyclopedia of Florida lore Serge Storms dances a tango of death and mayhem in this funny and dementedly entertaining crime caper from Tim Dorsey, author of the New York Times bestseller The Riptide, Ultra-Glide.

Thanks to the Internet, America has become a playground for ruthless scam artists out to make an easy buck. And where do these models of entrepreneurship hail from? Why, the Sunshine State of course!

No one loves Florida more, or can keep it safe from invasive criminal species better than self-appointed Sunshine Sheriff Serge Storms. When a particular scam leads to the death of a few innocents and a young woman's disappearance, Serge and his perpetually self-bent sidekick Coleman—aided by his new pal, latter-day noir private eye Mahoney—load up the car for a riotous road trip to do right. Packed with seafood, mayhem, blood, Coleman’s deep thoughts, Floridian lore, and more, Tiger Shrimp Tango is a hilarious treat from the incomparable Tim Dorsey.

This isn't Shakespeare, except for his comedies.

A lover of the series: First Audiobook

this was my first audiobook in regards to the Serge series and I have to say it was difficult to adjust to the nasally voice of Serge. But the voice actor for this book was so incredibly talented. I mean everybody else's voice other than Serge was just fantastic to me. I think I just had a hard time adjusting because I read 7 volumes and created Serge's voice in my head. Even though the voice didn't match up and that was probably the most difficult part, the voice actor was incredibly committed to the character which brought Serge to life in my eyes or should I say my ears. I guess that's why I really enjoyed listening to this book because it was closer to a drama than a standard audiobook. if you're a fan of the Serge series and you're teetering like I was for months, that's not a joke, then I highly recommend this book. I caught myself laughing more than once it's a pretty amazing with a stellar performance.

A very good installment in the series...

Always a fun adventure with Serge and Coleman... Parts of this installment made me laugh so hard especially during the exchange a handful of people had in the chat window...

There is no way I can stop ...

I am always mortified, amazed and can't help but laugh hysterically when devouring another Serge episode. Tim Dorsey is a consumate (albeit sicko) story teller.
