The Assault – Book Review

I received this book free for purposes of my review. All opinions are my own.

The Assault: Cycle Two of the Harbingers Series by Bill Myers, Frank Peretti, Angela Hunt, and Alton Gansky.

This is Book two of the Harbingers Series. A while back I reviewed book one and liked it so I was excited to receive book two to review as well.

This book was much like the first, with each author writing a section from their person’s point of view. I do find it a bit jolting at times when I switch authors. Mainly because the book is more like 4 mini stories and not one large story, but also the switch between characters when I switch authors always takes me a second. I have to re-orient myself to whom is telling the story – since the stories are told in the first person, and each author writes for a different person.

As the darkness grows with these 4 gifted people be able to stay ahead of it or will it overtake them? The continuing story line is interesting and exciting to read. Because of the 4 different authors it’s a bit unpredictable what will happen to the 4 friends next and what the outcome will be, so it keeps me guessing. Which is always great for this type of book.

This book is easy and quick to read and very entertaining. I enjoyed reading it, and plan to read cycle three as well.

I received this beautiful perfume in order to review my purchase experience. Bamboo by Frank Oliver smells awesome! It has a great light, feminine scent. It’s not too strong and I can wear it pretty much anywhere. Really, I’m loving it. And the bottle is so pretty. Currently, it’s sitting out in my living room because it goes so well with my decor.

And purchasing it was so easy! The Fragrance Outlet website was easy to use from start to finish. They have so much to choose from. So many items on sale. They carry full size bottles (like Bamboo) and some travel size sets. I had lots of fun just browsing before I finally decided to check out and order my perfume.

Oh, and they carry these little Airport-Approved refillable Fragrance spray bottles. Hubby’s been traveling a lot lately and I’ve been looking for something like this for him. Of course, I had to add it to my order. I was already getting free shipping, so, why not? That said, they seem to have everything I need in the fragrance department. Now he just needs to take another trip so he can try it out.

There’s several payment options at checkout. Their site, Paypal, or Amazon. So you can pay whichever way is best for you. I just used their website to checkout and it’s what you would expect. Payment information, Address information, Confirm order. The total and what I’m actually purchasing is clear and easy to find – very important for online orders. Checkout was a breeze.

My order arrived a couple of days later. Shipping was way faster than I expected! When it arrived, my perfume was nicely packaged in this cute box. So, if I was giving a gift, I would have been ready to go. This was more like giving myself a gift – which is also fun, btw. You should order yourself some perfume from The Fragrance Outlet and try it out.

They also included 4 little perfume samples – and I LOVE perfume samples!

All in all, I had a great experience. The website is easy to browse. They carry a great selection of products for both men and women. Checkout was easy. Shipping was fast – oh, you get free shipping right now, if your order is over $50. And my order arrived well packaged.

As an added bonus, I’m just loving the engraved bamboo on the back of my Bamboo Eau De Parfum. It’s so pretty!
