Five characters--with gifts they do not fully understand-- are mysteriously brought together to battle growing pockets of darkness throughout the world: Brenda—the street-hustling tattoo artist who sees images of the future. The Professor—the atheist ex-priest ruled by logic. Andi—the professor’s brilliant-but-geeky assistant who sees inexplicable patterns. Tank—the naïve, big-hearted jock with a surprising connection to a healing power. Daniel—the institutionalized ten-year-old who can see into the supernatural world. In this first episode, our unlikely team comes together to find themselves helping a student at the mysterious Institute for Advanced Psychic Studies. He will soon graduate and use his finely-tuned skills of lucid dreaming to assist world renown leaders. For him, this is a great honor and opportunity . . . but with some very disturbing strings attached. Best selling authors Bill Myers, Frank Peretti, Angela Hunt, and Alton Gansky unite their talents to write this riveting, fast-paced series of supernatural novellas.
Best-selling author. Award-winning filmmaker. To date, Bill Myers' books and videos have sold over 8 million copies. Not bad for a man who never wanted to be a writer. He grew up in the mountains of Washington State, eight miles from the nearest town. Even with all that solitude, he read very little as a child and got Cs and Ds in the only writing class he took at the University of Washington.
"When a girl I'd dated all through high school dumped me our first year at college, I wandered the campus night after night, until I finally told God He could have my life, I'd do whatever he wanted regardless of how strange it was." Even though for most of his life Bill wanted to be a dentist, he kept getting the impression God wanted him to be in filmmaking. "We had quite a few arguments, but because I made that promise, I changed my major to film directing and a few weeks later found myself in Rome, Italy studying a subject I knew nothing about in a language I couldn't speak. Talk about feeling foolish." Bill fell into writing when he was directing a play in Los Angeles and a producer asked him to write a television show. "I discovered the power of writing through television and movie scripts, then books." Besides his studies in film directing in Rome, Bill holds a degree in Theater Arts from the University of Washington and an honorary doctorate from the Theological Institute of Nimes, France, where he taught. As author/screenwriter/director his work has won over 60 national and international awards, including the C.S. Lewis Honor Award. His DVDs and books have sold 8 million copies. His children's DVD and book series, McGee and Me, has sold 4.5 million copies, has won 40 Gold and Platinum awards, and has been aired on ABC as well as in 80 countries. His My Life As... book series has sold 2.1 million copies. He has written, directed, and done voice work for Focus on the Family's Adventures in Odyssey radio series and is the voice of Jesus in Zondervan's NIV Audio Bible. As an author, several of his children's book series and adult novels have made the bestseller list. He is also managing partner of Amaris Media, International – a motion picture and media company currently developing several projects for both children and adults.
The motion picture, The Wager, starring Randy Travis and based on Myers' novel by the same name, was released in 2009.
