About this listen
Paul Benjamin was an ordinary New Yorker until a gang of drug addicts killed his wife and raped his daughter. When the police proved helpless, Benjamin bought a gun and found his own vengeance, methodically tracking the addicts and killing them one by one. Now he is in Chicago, and the cycle of violence is about to begin anew. On his first night in the city, he stumbles out of a bar in a bad part of town, pretending to be drunk. When two thugs set upon him, they find their quarry sober and armed. He kills them both, escaping before the police arrive. They will not be the last of Chicago's criminal class to suffer his wrath.
Written by Garfield as “penance” for the success of the grisly film adaptation of Death Wish, this sequel shows that when a decent man relies on violence to settle scores, murder becomes addictive.

Do you feel lucky?
Paul is back in death wish 2. this is nothing like the movie death wish 2 or the movie death sentence which is purported to be based on this novel. it has absolutely no resemblance. it is however a great sequel to the novel death wish. if you like that, this is a perfect continuation to that story.
some people feel the need to describe the story in their reviews. I do not. give it a listen!

Holsopple Kills It
Paul Benjamin’s family has been destroyed by drug addicts, so he buys a gun and goes looking for revenge. But what happens when revenge and murder become addictive? Apparently Garfield wrote this as penance after his most-successful novel, Death Wish, had become a successful (but grisly) movie the year before. There’s some amazing action and some thought-provoking moments, but the book gets bogged down in morality and proselytizing on more than a few occasions. Ending is rushed but dramatic and lends itself to a sequel…although sadly there isn’t one. Brian Holsopple does a great job narrating for Audible.
