About the Book

Originally published: New York: William Morrow, 2010.

From the Back Cover

That's right: Serge and Coleman do spring break!

One spring break location obviously isn't enough for Serge A. Storms, so he must hit them all, traveling through various historic locales, spewing nuggets of history at anyone who won't run away, and dispensing his own signature brand of Sunshine State justice.

Along the trail, he and his sidekick, Coleman, attract a growing following of the nation's top college students . . . and a mysterious gang that leaves a trail of young bodies in its wake.

Then there are the coke smugglers gone legit and a pair of the most dangerously sexy bartenders ever to mix a rum runner. After years of quiet, a legendary Miami kingpin from the anything-goes eighties is suddenly back in the news . . . along with one of the state's most psychotic monsters. So pack the cooler, load the car, and head to where the water is warm for a spring vacation you won't soon forget--no matter how much you might try!

Review Quotes

"Clearly this isn't high literature, and thank goodness for that. The world needs a little fun now and then and Dorsey delivers it, in spades....Dorsey's books are like cotton candy; not a whole lot of nutrition, but once you finish it you're hungry for more." - Florida Times-Union
"Ingenious...It's difficult to resist a crime story that makes references to Tom Petty, Ken Kesey, Elvis and the Creature from the Black Lagoon, too." - Sarasota Herald-Tribune
"[A] twisted wild ride...unforgettable." - Oklahoma City Oklahoman
"It's all about laughs, which fans will find in satisfactory supply..." - Kirkus Reviews
"The 12 books by Tampa resident Dorsey are not only set in the Sunshine State but are gleeful celebrations of its most outrageous excesses, weirdnesses, idiocies and perils...Like all of Dorsey's books, Gator A-Go-Go is loony, violent, profane and often ridiculous - in short, just like life in Florida, and we might as well laugh at it until the gator bites down." - St. Petersburg Times
Gator A-Go-Go, like Dorsey's other novels, is pure entertainment....Gator A-Go-Go moves at Dorsey's typical break-neck pace....No one ever accused the Stooges of being anything but lowbrow; the same goes for Dorsey's novels. Both know the importance of a well-placed pie in the face." - South Florida Sun Sentinel
"Explosively funny." - Miami Herald
"A raucous good time of a ride." - Tampa Tribune
"Tampa's own Tim Dorsey continues to improve...He gives voice to things we love and hate about living here...[and] again serves up creative ways for Serge to dispatch his victims....Along the way, Dorsey piles joke upon joke. He also gives us Serge rants on topics ranging from the history of spring break to his take on religion (definitely not orthodox)." - Tampa Tribune
"Wickedly fun." - Entertainment Weekly
