I loved reading this triology - I just wish he would write more books in the series!
Good ending to a fun trilogy.

SIEGE OF STONE seemed a little rushed, but it was a satisfying end to this entertaining supernatural thriller trilogy. Fans of the X-Files will find it especially satisfying. Recommended.
A perfect ironic ending to this top-drawer trilogy!

Part 3 ends this wonderful series in a very ironic and true way. To say that this is Williamson at his best is not an understatement! DREAMTHORP & SECOND CHANCE may be his best 2 novles but THE SEARCHERS series goes right next to those 2. About time a writer didn't water down an ending just to make it happy! Well done and a must for thriller/horror fans!
Great fun! An awesome ending to a fantastic series.

I could not put down the first two books in "The Searchers" series, and this one was no different -- in fact, I read the entire book in one sitting! This episode does a wonderful job of capping off the delightfully twisting and turning storyline, and fans of the first two will NOT be disappointed.
A great supernatural thrillogy

I waited to post reviews on the first two books in the Searcher series until I saw how the last volume turned out. I needn't have bothered, since Mr. Williamson maintained the taut writing, finely delineated characters, and sure hand at dealing with paranormal (or is it??) material right up to the cataclysmic end. These are superb thrillers, marrying X-Files style paranormal investigation with a sure hand at action and a trip into the most fascinating corners of strange phenomena. The series feels like one large novel that reaches progressive crescendos at the end of each installment, with the last volume (which I just finished) providing a suitably grand finale.I hadn't seen much from Mr. Williamson in recent years, but I remember his Ash Wednesday as one of the more literate and emotionally powerful horror novels of the past couple decades. It's good to see him back in top form. There's no question that these are inspired by the X-Files, but they bring a literacy, craft, and intelligence to paranormal fiction that we see too rarely. Now that the final volume is out, buy them all and read them all together.
