> I've seen serzone listed as a Selective Serotonin Noradrenergic Reuptake Inhibitors (SSNRI). It has a dual-action like Effexor.

Yes, I've read that it is in the "structurally unrelated drugs"; like Wellbutrin, effexor, Vestra. From what I've read it (as with everything in this archaic age of mental illness) how it works is not exactly known, but "studies" suggest that it interferes with the uptake of both serotonin and norepinephrine. it both boosts the brain's level of serotonin while blocking serotonin receptors. this info was taken from "Making the anti-depressant decision" by turkington and kaplan.
