Book Description

Series: Pinnacle Adventure Fiction | Publication Date: May 1, 2006

Lieutenant Colonel Art Jensen finds himself a soldier without an army after he is caught on tape killing an Iraqi terrorist in a Baghdad fire fight - only to have the media make him out to be a murderer. A career spent serving his beloved country now seems to be over...Until Jensen receives a new set of orders - secret orders. He is promoted to brigadier general, and placed in charge of the Special Function Unit - a new, covert "black ops" team. A team of one. The terrorists are already here. Financed and trained by a billionaire Saudi prince determined to bring the infidel America to its knees, a number of sleeper cells within the U.S. are being activated. Officially, the politically protected prince is untouchable, and his campaign of terror stands ready to begin. But Art Jensen is no longer a soldier bound by orders - he's a weapon, bound by duty and honour, and he has one mission: to destroy the enemy within.

5.0 out of 5 stars James Bond's successor., May 3, 2007

Fred Austin does a fine job in carrying on the William W. Johnstone legacy. Lt. Col. Arthur Jensen is a hero for today, an American cut from the cloth of the men who built this country.

I am a new fan of Johnstone, having only read Preacher's Fortune, a five star novel in its genre.

Lt. Col. Arthur Jensen, the great great great grandson of Smoke Jensen, is the politically incorrect protagonist we have been waiting for--James Bond's and Mat Helm's successor.

Austin's characters captures some of the idiots masquerading as Congressmen, Senators and talking heads. This is a book for real Americans, one that will induce nervous breakdowns in the far left apologists.

I am eagerly waiting for the next Black Ops novel.

This is awesome book related to current events, far left media, and even back to events of Viet Nam War. Like most of Johnstone's books, it is also a "pager turner". I look forward to another with the main characters in the near future. I hope millions read this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars enjoyable AND necessary reading, March 19, 2007

This review is from: Black Ops: American Jihad (Pinnacle Adventure Fiction) (Paperback)

It is refreshing that an author has been brave enough to tackle this subject in an honest way. So many of today's books dealing with terrorism are distorted by what some call "political correctness" and others call "multiculturalism." Jihadists don't believe in multiculturalism. They believe in monoculturalism--theirs.

If you want the facts behind the fiction, read While America Sleeps: How Islam, Immigration and Indoctrination are Destroying America from Within.
