About this listen

In Coventry, Eric and Harry watch helplessly as they find themselves face to face with the latest arrival at Ground Zero. Tired and coming to terms with Eric’s devastating injuries, how can two men hope contain such an indestructible force, let alone escape the impenetrable energy shield that now envelops them and the city?

In the north of the country, Maria and her new friends race towards the Isle of Skye and - hopefully - answers. What is the secret behind Maria’s own connection to the Stone Men? What is the purpose of the mysterious Prism, and can it be destroyed? What has been happening at Project Orobouros for the last five years, and has it led to anything that can be deployed against this new incarnation? The stakes are about to rise dramatically, so much so that the fate of the country - and humanity itself - hangs in the balance.

Maria, Eric, and the rest of survivors of the fourth arrival will need to uncover the truth and band together in a desperate last stand against an unfathomable threat.

But how can mere humans hope to resist the unstoppable power of the Stone Men?

Horror, blood and bone, terror, tragedy, human kindness , cooperation ( however grudging) compassion and yes even love as a select band of connected individuals strive to save their country maybe even world from a colossus ( in more ways than one ) of an invasion. An invasion of stone intent of wresting life and limb from their bodies and feeding off their very humanity itself. Are we human after all? Love this series and this one was a roller coaster of a ride. The Narrator of this book and series is superb & Luke Smithered always delivers , check out his other books too , though maybe not if you’re squeamish 🤣

Whew!!!! well that was intense.....

Such a joy to re-visit characters old and new become even more horrified by the Stone mens antics then ever before! I don’t want to give too much away, but this is a beautifully paced and gripping story that had me eking the book out as I just didn’t want it to end!
If you haven’t yet listened to The Stone Man, and then the Empty Men, download them
Immediately then listen to this. You won’t be disappointed. One of the finest narrators there is, Matt Addis and Luke Smitherd deliver yet another truly stunning epic story. Well done!

Spectacular!

Luke Smitherd I hate you!
When you read a book you know when you are getting towards the end.
When you listen to an audio book an audio book you don't actually know when the end is coming unless you unless you obsessively check the amount of time remaining which I don't.
So to have it finished like it did had me stomping and swearing round the kitchen in a right hissy fit.
But then I realised that means there will be another book.
Luke Smithered you are forgiven.
A fantastic book brilliantly written and equally brilliantly narrated by the fantastic Matt Addis.
Can't recommend this book highly enough in fact can't recommend the whole Stone Man series highly enough. Just amazing and so different from anything else I have ever read/listened to.
Luke, Matt thank you!!!

just Brilliant!!!

The Stone Man was the first book I got when I opened my Audible account, and I loved it, the story, narration, it was the doorway into a whole new entertainment medium for me. Since then I have listened to some fantastic books, but a Luke Smithered book, narrated by Matt Addis is something I greatly look forward to.

For me, The Empty Men was an equal to the first book, but this book, The Stone Giant, is a leap ahead.

Thoroughly enjoyed this, cannot wait to dive back in with the raft of characters Luke has created.

Absolutely gripping, thanks Luke & Matt!
