Levon’s Night lacks the gritty simplicity of the first novel and the setup takes a little too long, but it’s still a solid thriller. The bad guys are genuinely menacing, and the snowy setting gives it a unique feel. If a Working Man sequel does happen, I hope it does adapt Levon’s Night. Not only does it have one of the best premises of the sequel novels, but it could finally give Statham his own Die Hard. Somehow, the veteran action star has never found himself in a Die Hard scenario and Levon’s Night would allow that to happen.

Chuck Dixon’s Levon Cade Books Include Many More Adventures For Jason Statham’s Character

The Levon Cade series has 12 books… and counting

Sylvester Stallone acts as co-producer and co-writer on A Working Man, having long owned the rights to the Levon Cade saga. The star originally planned to turn the property into a TV series before reworking it as a starring vehicle for Statham. ᴀssuming A Working Man is enough of a hit to warrant it, there’s a lot of source material available for a follow-up. There are 12 books in Dixon’s Levon Cade series, with the most recent being 2024’s Levon’s Scourge.

The events of one book typically set up the next. For instance, Levon’s Night ends with Levon and Merry on the run again, having taken off with the money the thieves tried to steal. The third story, Levon’s Ride, sees the тιтle character’s truck and money being stolen, so he has to whip up hell to find them both. Book 4, Levon’s Run, then sees him on the run again as law enforcement and criminals chase after him for the millions he’s taken off with.

Basically, trouble always seems to find Levon, no matter how well-meaning he might be. A Working Man doesn’t close with Levon and Merry on the run, though, given the mess he created in the movie, he could very well decide that going into hiding is the safest course of action.
