He is now being hunted after years of living under false name and finally finding what might be called normal life. He is trying to find his pursuers and make an end to it but not everything is like it seems. For Parker fans and fans of the original novel "Drive" highly recommended. Tras siete años apartado de la carretera, Driver regenta un próspero negocio que le permite vivir honradamente junto a su prometida Irene. El que habÃa sido uno de los mejores especialistas de Hollywood de dÃa y mercenario al volante para todo tipo de criminales por la noche, quizá haya conseguido alejarse para siempre de un oficio que casi le costó la vida. Pero la tan codiciada paz se desmorona cuando Irene es brutalmente asesinada. Driver, ciego de ira, deberá afrontar su destino: conducir como el mismÃsimo diablo hasta vengar la muerte de quien tanto le habÃa amado. Change? No. What we do is adapt. Get by. Time you’re ten, twelve years old, it’s pretty much set in you, what you’re going to be like, what your life’s going to be. É seguindo as derradeiras considerações de Bernie Rose que Sallis continua a saga do nosso Driver, não há mudanças, apenas adaptações: o estilo não-linear e minimalista, a essência e sina do protagonista entre o silêncio, o trágico e a violência. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

HTML: "The perfect piece of noir fiction." â??New York Times Book Review At the end of Drive, Driver has killed Bernie Rose, "the only one he ever mourned," ending his campaign against those who double-crossed him. Driven tells how that young man, done with killing, becomes the one who goes down "at 3 a.m. on a clear, cool morning in a Tijuana bar." Seven years have passed. Driver has left the old life, become Paul West, and founded a successful business back in Phoenix. Walking down the street one day, he and his fiancée are attacked by two men and, while Driver dispatches both, his fiancée is killed. Sinking back into anonymity, aided by his friend Felix, an ex-gangbanger and Desert Storm vet, Driver retreats but finds that his past stalks him and will not stop. He has to turn and face it. Because he drives. That's what he Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

Over all this book has less action than the first. The last half of the book is definitely a page turner, and since we know how it will end (he told us in the first book) we are eager to see how he manages to stay alive until then.
I would have suggested combining the two books into one novella/short novel.
