Tropical Warning is a short story by Tim Dorsey featuring  his character Serge Storm.  The story is well-crafted and the prose is well-written including solid dialog between Storm and his partner.  In general, the story was OK -- not bad, but also not great.  I was unfamiliar with Serge Storm prior to this story, and unfortunately, the story doesn't provide a lot of background on the character, who seemed in the story, very smug and self-righteous.  If you're looking for an easy introduction to Storm and Dorsey's writing, I'm not sure that this fits the bill.  If you're already a fan of the other novels, then this works as a free, quick read that fans would likely enjoy.
