Battle Djinni

Meet the most important Iranian intelligence agent you’ve never heard of.

July 13, 1982: Iran launches Operation Ramadan, the largest land battle since WWII. For Iranian Army Captain Reza Sanjabi, survivor of five battles, all signs point to a bloodbath. Thousands of frenzied civilians ready to be sacrificed as human shields, rumors of enemy chemical weapons, and the false hope of an Iraqi populist uprising.

Reza’s men will follow him anywhere. They call him the Battle Djinni, named for the medallion of a Persian deity he wears into combat. They say the family heirloom gives Captain Sanjabi magical protection on the battle field.

But when Reza finds himself wounded, alone, and trapped on the wrong side of the battle, it looks like his luck has finally run out…

What happens next will put Reza in service to a powerful politician for the rest of his life. 

Grab Battle Djinni and go behind enemy lines with Captain Sanjabi.
