Has anyone read “Heat 2”? I loved the movie, is the novel worth the read?

Hi everyone,

I recently watched the movie "Heat" and absolutely loved it. The story, the characters, and the intense action scenes really grabbed me. I've heard there's a novel titled "Heat 2" and I'm curious if it's worth reading.

For those who have read it, does it capture the same intensity and depth as the movie? How well does it expand on the characters and story? Any thoughts or reviews would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
