Description

The #1 Amazon and Audible best seller, shortlisted for Audible UK's Audiobook of the Year Award 2015

Nobody knew where it came from.

Nobody knew why it came.

When an eight-foot-tall man made of stone appears in the middle of a busy city center one July afternoon, two-bit (and antisocial) reporter Andy Pointer assumes it's just a publicity stunt.

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.

As efforts by the local police - and soon the government - to halt the Stone Man's inexorable progress prove futile, only three questions are on the watching world's lips:

Where has it come from, where is it going, and what does it want?

Andy is determined to be the first person to answer those questions; after all, he was there when it arrived. Surely the headaches and visions he's experiencing are proof of a mental connection to the Stone Man. Clearly his dreams of champagne and notoriety are all about to be fulfilled once he uncovers the truth...and the scoop of a lifetime.

In a pursuit that carries him the length of the country and the breadth of the Atlantic, Andy uncovers the jagged pieces of an increasingly terrifying puzzle. As the number of lives lost in the wake of the Stone Man reaches grim figures, the terrible results of Andy's blind determination force him to confront the savagery of human nature.

When irresistible forces aren't met by immovable objects, how far is too far? Andy must discover the answer - and find out who he really is - in the shadow of the Stone Man.

Intriguing, well written, fantastic narrator!

I loved every moment of the book, even to the point of liking it despite not really liking the main character. That is rare for me, normally I have to love the main character to really truly enjoy the story. I think this speaks to what an excellent story it is that I could stay up late listening and never want to turn it off without that personal connection!

Great Story

First, I have read/ listened to all of this series. The story is very original and keeps a strong pace throughout. The reader Matt Addis preformed the story with expertise and insight. After reading the novel I was unsure how the audio version would hold up but it did.

Luke keep these coming if you can the story fulfills ever aspect of good fiction.

I hope everyone enjoys this story as I have numerous times.

why would Audible categories as Science fiction?

zero science in this book(Mentions GTCA amino acid genetic coding for no final meaning) A story that does not bring to any interesting idea. Never trigger any philosophic thinking or even subtle emotions. A very boring waste of time. The reader's performance and accents is pretty good tho.
