Editorial Reviews

Hilarious

Oklahoma City Oklahoman

A blast… side-splitting satire.

Richmond Times-Dispatch

Pineapple Grenade displays Dorsey’s talents as a comedian, a Florida historian, a political and social commentator, and a well-seasoned writer.

Gainesville Times

Pineapple Grenade is a topsy-turvy, slap-happy romp through Florida.

Sun-Sentinel

A “guy” book, a real “man’s man” kind of novel. But kind of fun for the ladies to enjoy as well - they kind of give women an insight into the weird, wonderful way a man’s mind works when the boys are let loose with their toys.

Ventura County Star

Dorsey fans clamor for Serge. Dexter just can’t compete with this guy. For non-stop spy-jinks and neo-crusted cackles, head down to Miami for Tim Dorsey’s explosive Pineapple Grenade.

Miami Herald

A successful blend of high stakes thriller action a la Miami Vice with laid back beachcombing style.

Denver Examiner

Bestseller Dorsey dishes up his Miami mayhem with a side order of mordant wit … neither Dorsey’s fast-paced prose nor his delight in skewering human foolishness has lost its mischievous sparkle.
