The Facade and Portent Bundle
I see the Facade and Portent Bundle is on sale today through Vyrso. Should I pick this up? For those that have read it, would be be anything I'd be interested in reading?
Thanks!

How can anyone tell whether you'd be interested in reading these if we don't know what your tastes in literature are? They are sci-fi thrillers, with stuff about UFOs, conspiracy theories, etc., and a faith/theology element. Do you like that genre? I've never read them, so I can't tell you if they are any good for that genre. But people on Amazon.com seem to like them.

Good point. :-)
I read the reviews on Amazon, and I decided to pick it up. I'm generally not a huge fan of fiction, but the reviews mention some Biblical scholarship stuff woven in, some Hebrew stuff, etc. I'll give them a read sometime and probably write a review for StillTruth.com. At that price, it isn't too bad.

The Amazon reviews are very convincing. Being a huge fan of the X Files, I picked that one up as well. Even more for the reason that the series is not available through individual purchase; just the bundle which will disappear end of this day.

The vyrso webstore has many limitations. One (for some reason unknown to me) is that individual resources must be pulled when they are placed into a bundle. The books will return once the bundle is finished with.

i can find neither the bundle nor the individual books for sale. I then searched for "Heiser" and "Facade" and "Portent" and "yielded no results." later I searched and found some results, but cannot link to anyway to purchase. Weird. lost a chance for a sale.
I like Apples. Especially Honeycrisp.

two things: I was hoping "Monday" extended to "before the new business day." [A] second, you would think one could still search and find links to either the bundle or the individual book.

I was confused about that on Monday as welll. You could only add the series to your cart from the Cybermonday deals page https://vyrso.com/cybermonday which now no longer exists.
Neither books nor the series were/are part of the "normal" product listings.

Hi everyone,
Our apologies for the individual titles showing up, we were a little late pushing the individual titles live. The search results will take a little while to populate, but you can find the titles here:
https://vyrso.com/product/45371/the-facade
https://vyrso.com/product/44933/the-portent
Hope you enjoy the ebooks!

All right, I'm through with the Facade now, and in the middle of the Portent.
This is highly complex matter with unexpected twists in every other chapter or so, and, as far as I've gotten until now, fully in sync with Biblical truth.
The story is thought through well, and the Evil has a better master plan than in Otherworld or Left Behind for example. It comes close to the same quality as CS Lewis' space trilogy, but I admit, that one would be hard to beat.
A bit disappointing: The few fragments in German have obviously never been proof read, although the author is a linguist.

Das mach nischt. Ze Amerikanz vill not notiss.
Jan, just spoofing. I am not a German national, but I agree whole heartedly with you. I notice it more in films where both the syntax and pronunciation suck. Maybe you can report it as a typo within Logos reporting. [;)]

thanks btw. I have not yet read the Facade and missed out on the Portent deal, but now I am very interested in reading the former and probably buying the latter.
