LEVON’S SCOURGE
(Levon Cade – Book Twelve)
By Chuck Dixon
Rough Edge Press
262 pgs
With this installment, writer Chuck Dixon stamps a finale on his terrific action series featuring a Marine veteran from the south named Levon Cade. From the first book, Cade was a man jinxed to collide with trouble due his inherent sense of justice and morality. He eventually becomes a wanted fugitive only because he dared cross savage criminal gangs from around the world.
In this final entry, Cade is determined to put an end to his personal war by going on the offensive. Tired of always being on the run and concerned for the safety of his daughters, he sets out to find the Asian crime lord who wants him dead. Through a series of events that lead him from Mexico to Saigon, Levon Cade becomes the lethal hunter we’ve all come to know in this incredible saga. Dixon’s prose is lean and hard. Hemingway would have loved it. At the same time, he touches the heart of the man and has us cheering wildly by beautiful homecoming that reunites him with his daughters.
“Levon’s Scourge” is a fitting ending. Now Hollywood, where’s that Levon Cade movie?
