  • "Seth Weinstein knew Tina was way out of his league in pretty much any way one could imagine, which is why it continued to astonish him that he was on the plane now for their destination wedding in Florida. The Groom Posse had already sprung an airport prank on him, and he'd survived it, and if that was the worst of it, everything should be okay. Smooth sailing from now on. Seth has absolutely no idea what he's about to get into. It's not smooth sailing, it's more like a trip on the Titanic."@en
  • "A columnist at the Miami Herald for nearly 30 years, New York Times bestselling humorist Dave Barry won the Pulitzer Prize for Commentary in 1988. His work has been syndicated in more than 500 newspapers, and his more than 30 books include I'll Mature When I'm Dead; Lunatics, coauthored with Alan Zweibel; and Dave Barry Slept Here: A Sort of History of the United States. Two of his books were used as the basis for the CBS TV sitcom Dave's World. In his new novel, Insane City, a destination wedding becomes embroiled in catastrophic debauchery."

The Groom Posse had already sprung an airport prank on him, and he'd survived it, and if that was the worst of it, everything should be okay. Smooth sailing from now on. Seth has absolutely no idea what he's about to get into. In the next several hours, he and his friends will become embroiled with rioters, Russian gangsters, angry strippers, a pimp as big as the Death Star, a very desperate Haitian refugee on the run with her two children from some very bad men, and an eleven-foot albino Burmese python named Blossom. And there're still two days to go before the wedding. As it turns out, it's not smooth sailing, it's more like a trip on the Titanic. And the water below him is getting deeper every minute. By the end, amid gunfire, high-speed chases, and mayhem of the most unimaginable sort, violent men will fall, heroes will rise, and many lives will change."
