Описание:
A (Serge A.) Storm is brewing for a cabal of bad guys gaming the Florida state lottery in this insanely funny novel from the maestro of mayhem, Tim Dorsey.
If you're loud and proud Floridian Serge A. Storms, how do you follow up your very own remake of Easy Rider? You shoot your own episodes of your favorite classic television show, Route 66
With Coleman riding shotgun, Serge is rolling down the highway of his dreams in a vintage silver convertible Corvette just like the snazzy car Martin Milner drove. It doesn't matter that the actual Route 66 didn't pass through Florida, for Serge discovers that a dozen episodes near the series' end were filmed (really ) in his beloved home state. So for Serge and the always toked and stoked Coleman, the Sunshine State is all the road you need to get your kicks.
But their adventure traveling the byways of the Sunshine State's underbelly is about to take a detour. Someone is trying to tilt the odds in the state lottery amidst a conga line of huge jackpots spinning off more chaos than any hurricane season. With this much at stake, of course every shady character wants in. Crooked bodega owners, drug cartels laundering money through the lottery, and venture capitalists are all trying to game the system--and lining up to get their cut. They're also gambling with their lives, because when Serge and Coleman get hip to this timely (and very lucrative) trip, there's no telling whose number is up next.
Throw in Brooke Campanella, Serge's old flame, as well as the perpetually star-crossed Reevis, and it's a sure bet that the ever lucky Serge will hit it big. Winning has never been this deadly--or this much fun

Описание:
From Florida's king of mayhem--compulsively irreverent and shockingly funny (Boston Globe) New York Times bestselling author Tim Dorsey--comes a diabolically madcap adventure featuring the indomitable Serge A. Storms.
No one worships the Sunshine State as much as Serge A. Storms. Perpetually hunting Floridian arcana and lore, he and his permanently baked sidekick, Coleman, are on the road again. This time they're on a frenzied literary pilgrimage that leads them back to Riviera Beach, the cozy seaside town where the boys spent their formative years.
Growing up, Serge was enthralled by the Legend of Riviera Beach, aka Darby, a welder at the port who surfed the local waves long before the hot spots were hot. A god on the water, the big-hearted surfer was a friend to everyone--the younger surfers, cops, politicians, wealthy businessmen and ordinary Joes--a generosity of spirit that earned him the admiration of all. Meanwhile, there was a much murkier legend that made the rounds of the schoolyards from Serge's youth--that of the crazy hermit living in a makeshift jungle compound farther up the mysterious Loxahatchee River than anyone dared to venture.
Then Serge moved away. But never forgot.
Now he's back, with those legends looming larger than ever in the rearview mirror of his memory. As his literary odyssey moves north from Key West, closer and closer to his old stomping grounds, Serge digs into the past as only Serge can. Along the way, he unintentionally disturbs some long-forgotten ground, attracting the attention of a cast of villains that only Florida can produce.
As the body count grows, so does the list of questions:
Why are the guys in the hard hats worried about the monkeys? When do you hack a motel air-conditioner? How does Coleman get high with cat toys? Who is expecting the dildo? And will book tours ever be the same after Serge decides to check one out?
Told in alternating flashbacks between Serge and Coleman's childhoods and the present day, The Pope of Palm Beach is a witty and deliciously violent delight from the twisted imagination of Tim Dorsey.

Описание: "Inside the Secret Space Programs" is a continuation of two previous works by the Author, Herbert G. Dorsey III - "Secret Science and the Secret Space Program", and "The Covert Colonization of Our Solar System". The previous two books, document the progress of antigravity propulsion, from the German Vrill Society and their Jensietsfugmaschine otherworld flying machine], in 1923 and Thomas Townsend Brown's experiments with gravitators at about the same time, to the present black projects inside companies like Lockheed Martin, Northrup Grumman, Boeing Aerospace, and North American, which create antigravity craft for the Air Force, Navy and some private corporations like the secretive Interplanetary Corporate Conglomerate (ICC). As more information becomes available from persons, like Corey Goode, William Tompkins, and Tony Rodrigues and others who worked in the secret space programs is revealed, a better picture of what goes on inside these programs is made possible. Sufficient new information has been revealed to warrant a new book on the subject. And remarkably, the new information, not only to a large degree, reinforces the information revealed in the previous two books, but also adds important information on subjects like where these kilometers long space craft are being built on this planet and how is it being financed. If you are interested in learning more about is really going on out in space, the covert colonizing, militarization, manufacturing and mining of Mars, other planets, moons and asteroids in our Solar system and even in other star systems, or you are curious about the technology used and how it works, this would be an excellent book to study.
