About the author
Jim DeFelice
143 books156 followersMy latest book, CODE NAME: JOHNNY WALKER was hailed by Kirkus Review as a “fiery, insightful memoir from the former Iraqi translator who fought alongside U.S. Special Forces during the recent war in Iraq.” They also “a harrowing personal journey of courageous self-empowerment during wartime.” called it an “invaluable insider’s perspective of Iraq.
I wrote it with the real "Johnny Walker," who was born and raised in Iraq. His dream of building a better country after the ouster of Sadaam Hussein was dashed by religious and sectarian violence. He risked his own life to help US military track down religious terrorists who targeted innocent Iraqi civilians and American military installations. I first heard about him from Navy SEAL Chris Kyle (who I wrote AMERICAN SNIPER with, who credited Johnny with saving many American and Iraqi lives. Chris noted that Johnny had an uncanny knack for defusing volatile situations, uncovering the right perpetrators who might be hiding in plain sight, and saving several American team member’s lives under fire. With the help of concerned SEALs, Johnny and his family were safely relocated to the U.S., where they are now, as Johnny likes to say, “living the dream.”

Could use a more accurate title, there are two A.B.L. in this story.

Boring, too long dialogs.
Dialog too long. Too much character background. Read was too boring. Lots skipped pages. Not recommended for action readers or more.

A fun who-done-it where DeFelice introduces his Andy Fischer character. I appreciated the real characters in this book, people with complex personalities and heroes with flaws. In this book Fischer is portrayed as a darker and perhaps more selfish figure than he is in "The Helios Conspiracy" (I haven't read "Threat Level Black" yet), but he is still very likable in a off color way.

Engaging if unrealistic. Surprisingly interesting FBI character. More dimensioned than your usual techno-thriller cast member.
