Four Bestselling Authors Team Up for Thrilling Supernatural Suspense
Gathering four stories from four bestselling author friends, Invitation is the first collection in the ongoing Harbingers series.
In “The Call” by Bill Myers, four strangers are drawn together to help a student at the mysterious Institute for Advanced Psychic Studies. His gifts are supposedly being honed to assist world leaders . . . but there are some very disturbing strings attached. Frank Peretti’s “The Haunted” confronts a supernatural mystery, a case of murder, and an exploration into the darkness of the human heart, all centering around a mysterious house.
In Angela Hunt’s “The Sentinels,” animals around the world are mysteriously dying. What could it mean? When the tragedy begins to touch Andi’s dreams, she discovers a terrifying theory. “The Girl” by Alton Gansky is a gripping tale of a young barefoot girl found holding a scroll in the snowy Oregon mountains. She is sweet, innocent–apparently not of this world–and something wants to kill her.

Summary
Invitation is a collection of four interconnected stories by authors Frank Peretti, Angela Hunt, Bill Myers, and Alton Gansky. This volume contains the first four stories in the Harbingers Series,
The authors set up two rules for their collaboration:
Rule #1 Each author would write as one of the characters in the series
Rule #2 They would write the stories like a TV series with an overarching storyline. The series part would be their individual stories, novellas, written from their character’s point of view.
Bill Myers tells the story from Brenda's perspective, a street hustling tattoo artist who sees images of the future in The Call. In The Haunted, Frank Peretti writes as the professor, the atheist ex-priest ruled by logic. Angela Hunt writes as Andi, the professor's brilliant but geeky assistant who sees inexplicable patterns in The Sentinels. Finally Alton Gansky writes as Tank, the naive, big-hearted jock with a surprising connection to a healing power in The Girl.
Invitation is a collection of four interconnected stories by authors Frank Peretti, Angela Hunt, Bill Myers, and Alton Gansky. It was very interesting and kept your attention and you never knew what was going to happen next. Each of the characters is unique and interesting in their own way. Tank “Cowboy” and Brenda were my favorites. I definitely see that this could be a series because each of them has more of a backstory that could be revealed. I would love for Brenda to have closure on her past. There were plot twist both in the base storyline but also as the individual characters would reveal more about their pasts. At the core of the storyline is good versus evil. I think the story could be enjoyed by both secular and Christian markets. I don't know if you would consider this sci-fi or fantasy as there are definitely nonhuman happenings at work. My only issue with the book was that I would get confused on who the main person was when we would switch stories because they were written in first person.
Sexual content - none
Violence - good versus evil,
alcohol - someone is a recovery alcoholic, but no drinking in the book
language - no words are mentioned, but it is alluded that a few of the characters will use profanity
