4.0 out of 5 stars Coleman? Is that you? Weren't you dead?!, 14 Feb 2008
By Sebastian Fernandez (Tampa, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Torpedo Juice (Mass Market Paperback)
Sometimes authors make mistakes, like killing a character they shouldn't have. Then, they come up with contrived stories that try to explain why the character wasn't really dead, and bring him / her back. Dorsey, with his irreverent and unorthodox style is not going to stoop that low. The craziness in his stories allows him to simply accept he made a mistake, and ask us to forget about the fact that Coleman was dead. Now we can once more experience the laughs this character, together with Serge A. Storms, brings to the table.

If you are a fan of the series, you are used to Dorsey's writing style, seemingly unconnected passages, with hilarious situations, that start to make sense about a quarter of the way through. But that never really make complete sense! In this case, this style is exacerbated, so if you have come to accept it, like I did, you will be fine. For people that have not being exposed to the author before, I recommend you start elsewhere; the best is to read these books in the order of publication.

The humor in this installment is at the usual high level, with the typical satiric elements and much more. The only thing that I did not particularly enjoy much was that Serge was not as "convincing" in dealing with annoying people as he has been in the past. Seeing Serge punish those that deserve it, is usually and entertaining experience, and that aspect was fairly limited in this novel. However, to compensate for that, Serge is on the prowl for a wife! Yes, you read right. He is looking to settle down and start a family. When I read this, two questions instantly popped up on my mind. Will he find someone willing to marry him? If he does, is there even a remote chance of it working out alright?

Fans of the series cannot afford to miss the answers to those questions, which are presented together with a bunch of loony characters and hilarious situations. Enjoy!
