March of the Stone Men–The Stone Man, Book Four
The return of the Stone Men reaches its dramatic conclusion…
The internationally bestselling Stone Man series returns! The five battered survivors of the Fifth Arrival have reached the Isle of Skye, only to face an impossible mission: destroy the Barrier that has trapped the country and stop the ever-growing army of Stone Men. The survival of humanity itself hangs in the balance, and though they’ve been given their greatest weapon yet, our heroes must first learn how to wield it... before time runs out.
But these are ordinary, frightened, and exhausted people. Their journey will take them from the rugged coast of Scotland to the heart of England, crossing the land on foot. As secrets come to light and tensions rise, conflicting personal objectives threaten the fragile balance essential for harnessing their powers as a unit. To stand a chance, our heroes must master their unity or face annihilation.
The March of the Stone Men has begun.
Concluding the epic arc that began in The Empty Men and continued through The Stone Giant, the fourth installment of The Stone Man series promises to thrill, terrify, and captivate audiences once more—twelve years in the making.

Nobody knew where it came from. Nobody knew why it came.

Indeed, so does everyone else...until the Stone Man begins to walk, heading silently through the wall of the nearest building, flattening it, and killing several people inside as a result.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 374
Martin Lorensen is a twenty-three-year-old counselor for disturbed teenagers. He’s bright, compassionate, attractive, and outgoing. He’s also—and this is the most interesting thing—not dead. Martin has improbably survived not one but two deadly disasters that claimed dozens of lives. The kid is riding one hell of a lucky streak. Two federal agents think there is something darker at play. Now that they’ve arranged to interview Martin, they want answers. Martin is ready to share everything he knows. One thing is for certain: when it comes to escaping death, luck doesn’t figure into it at all.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,932
This forest isn't charted on any map. Every car breaks down at its treeline. Mina's is no different. Left stranded, she is forced into the dark woodland only to find a woman shouting, urging Mina to run to a concrete bunker. As the door slams behind her, the building is besieged by screams. Mina finds herself in a room with a wall of glass, and an electric light that activates at nightfall, when the watchers come above ground. These creatures emerge to observe their captive humans and terrible things happen to anyone who doesn't reach the bunker in time.

On the planet Tython, the ancient Je’daii order was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force - and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the Je’daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy. Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je’daii Council on a matter of utmost urgency.

This One Will Stick With You
March of the Stone Men is the fourth and final book in Smitherd's tetralogy.
There's a lot to say about it, but nearly everything I could say might spoil the read for the millions of readers who've waiting a decade for its release. Because of this, I'll keep my thoughts forward and concise:
I meant to spend a week reading this novel. I blew through it in a single night.
I then joined Audible and picked up the Audio Book to listen to it and experience it all over again.
Smitherd manages to wrap up nearly every single one of his storylines, leaving only a few dangling threads for for we might assume [hope?] will be a sequel series sometime in the future. The characters are impeccably written, and the book is perhaps the most action-packed in the series, which is saying something if you've read book two [The Empty Men]. What sets this one apart is the emotional core, though. It's moving. And it's sad. And it's going to absolutely destroy you in a way no book has. Prepare yourself. You'll feel things.

I think my heart almost stopped.
Dear Luke: I’ve read all of your books and I preordered this one. My first thought when I saw it was ready was, “FINALLY!”
I downloaded it and started it the same day.
I am thankful the “Benjamins” were shared so you could have the same narrator. I cannot imagine hearing the voices of these characters voiced by anyone else.
If we were to sit down to have coffee or tea, I’d want to ask you how…how you got through writing the heart rending scenes that devastated me. I’m sure you know what I mean. Did it devastate you to write those scenes?
You make things so vivid with your writing. Does it feel “real” to you?
I completely understand how this book/series took over your life. I’m (not so) secretly keeping my fingers crossed that you’ll eventually spill the beans on what happens next but I’m also relieved for you to get your life back. Write on, sir. As the stone man walks.

Exciting and moving!
another great book in the stone man series.
the story is action packed and compelling.
I really feel like I know the main characters (leaving names off just in case it's a spoiler) the narration is spot on for the story, I also like the method or perspective the story is told from (sorry this is vauge but could also be a spoiler)
I was an early reader of the original stone man and after multiple times through I always felt like I wanted more, I'm so glad there were these follow up books and I feel satisfied with the story. Not to say I won't be at the front of the line should there be more to come because I will. I'm just satisfied with where the story end here.
thanks for the adventure.

Another Great Ride with Luke Smitherd
I have enjoyed all of the books in The Stone Man series, and this latest work is by far my favorite. Luke Smitherd writes with a narrative-driven style that beautifully lends itself to the Audible format, and Matt Addis does a great job of narrating.
This book took me on a journey with familiar characters as they navigate devastated inner and outer landscapes. The relentless stomping of the Stone Men propels this book, and I found myself deciding to "listen to just one more chapter before bed" until the very late hours! This was a satisfying last (?) installment of the series, and I'm intrigued by imagining what might happen to our favorite characters after this story.
Strongly recommend this series to anyone interested in thoughtful science fiction with deeply human characters. Yes, there are also Stone Men. This story balances their over-arching menace against the struggle of the characters to retain their humanity, humor, and will to persevere. A great listen.

worthy conclusion
Side note - Luke's consistent and authentic humble after works and his jokes at Matt are always charming and a great end.
The Stone Man was an incredible book and any subsequent books had an incredible bar to clear but I'm glad to say that Luke stuck the landing here. Very glad I started this series and have as requested, recommended it to many friends.

A pretty great wrap up.
As usual, great narration and a romping good story. This one leans into the flawed "heros" even more so. There are some excellent "Hell ya!" moments and some very hard to hear emotional stresses on the characters. A lot happens and is figured this time, but so much mystery remains. Fun well written and well performed.
Thanks Luke and Matt
