About this listen

Just when you thought it was safe to go online...

Serge has returned! That loveable collector of trivia, souvenirs, and murder methods is back with a new A-Tour of Florida. And this time he's out to set the record straight!

Serge is upset that his beloved state isn't getting its proper recognition, so he sets up his own wildcat Internet travel-service site, hyper-blogging his way down the coast with his perpetually hammered sidekick, Coleman. Unfortunately Serge's Web presence catches the attention of his nemesis, Agent Mahoney, and the chase is on.

Meanwhile, professional robbery crews have begun targeting trade show exhibitors, who may or may not be what they seem. Bodies begin piling up, and Serge has had enough! He's forced into the only logical course of action: shopping at the Home Depot.

And this only raises more questions: Who is tutoring strippers through the community college? Where did all these diamonds come from? And does Lynyrd Skynyrd hold the key to everything?

It's time to sign on with Serge and see where the twisting, sun-splashed trail leads in Nuclear Jellyfish!

Editorial reviews

Oliver Wyman's voice sounds like a chainsaw in a minor key in his latest turn as Serge A. Storms in Dorsey's eleventh Florida adventure. The lovable psychopath/hero, Serge, along with his trusty amigo, Coleman, who's always high, cruises tourist sites like the West Tavern, where Lynyrd Skynyrd was inspiration for the song "Three Steps." They're gathering material for a travel website to the weird. The villain, a small-time thug nicknamed "Jellyfish," and a gorgeous stripper who is dancing her way through college feature in a surreal plot. Wyman's mishmash of gravelly accents and Dorsey's off-the-wall jokes make listening to this audio highly entertaining.

Can't get enough of Serge!

Would you consider the audio edition of Nuclear Jellyfish to be better than the print version?

Don't know, because I have not read the print verison. But I have to tell you, listening to this is a riot! Real "laugh out loud" stuff!

What other book might you compare Nuclear Jellyfish to and why?

Well, the other books in this series. Serge, & Coleman, too funny for words.

Which scene was your favorite?

Hard to say, because you don't have time to consider....the thing moves at lightning pace

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Wish I could have. And may listen to it again, just for that reason!

Any additional comments?

More Serge, give me more Serge!

Another wacky adventures of Surge.

I enjoy the adventures of Surge, however the cussing was over the top. It took away from the story.

I just keep coming back for more Serge

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would certainly recommend this book to anyone that likes laugh, follow outlandish plots, and some how find that it is all tied together with a nice little bow in the end.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Serge and Coleman are characters that you can't but love and come back to the next book for more. They are so completely different from each other, yet Tim Dorsey found a way to make these two inseparable (well okay he separated them for a short while in the beginning of the series but brought the true dynamic duo back together for a barrel of laughs seasoned with just the right amount of revenge to please your pallet and make you hungry for more.

Which character – as performed by Oliver Wyman – was your favorite?

Serge and Coleman of course. Oliver Wyman's impression of the two characters is spot on for their antics.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I always find myself laughing out loud at the comments and analogies the author dreams up for his amazing cast of accidental heroes and villains

Saying goodbye to a good character

Serge Storm is a bipolar serial killer that has kept my spirits up and laughing across many miles of commuting through Arkansas and Missouri. Apparently the last in the series. I guess there are only so many implements of death that one can find in a Home Depot.
If you are new to Tim Dorsey, I recommend Orange Crush - an epic election year tale.

Oddly funny.

This was my first Tim Dorsey novel. I wasn't so sure about the book in the beginning; the plot seemed a bit scattered, and I almost stopped listening. But I stuck with it, and I'm glad I did! The seemingly incongruent plot lines all come together beautifully in the end. A good listen for those who like off-beat humor.

One of my favorite Serge stories

I've been listening since Book 1 of the Serge Storms series came out on audio. This performance was great! Major chapter sections are segued with music which enhanced the mood. It's been hard to adjust since the narrator changed, but this performance turned the page for me.
