Sky of Stone: A Memoir Audiobook

" an awesome end to the coalwood series "

" This is the third book in Homer (Sonny) Hickam's Coalwood trilogy and I would be hard pressed to say which is my favorite of the three. The author is so adept at bringing back a bygone era and depicting the confusion of a young man trying to figure out his place in the world and at the same time having a sense of humor about himself. If I am ever asked if I could invite any three people in the world living or dead to dinner one choice would definately be Elsie Hickam, Sonny's mother. Now there was a lady! "

" I just don't care much for Homer. It made it tough for me to root for him and stay interested in the book. "

" In Sky of Stone, Homer Hickam returns to the small town of Coalwood West Virginia, and is confronted by the death of a miner. He wants to figure out how the miner died, but the whole of Coalwood seem to be covering it up and placing the blame squarely on Homer's dad. Doing a little investigating on his own, Homer discovers the secret. Very interesting story, interesting twist and a look into the life of Coalwood, West Virginia. "

" Great finish to a wonderful series.....I loved these books so much, I actually plan to go to Coalwood Days in October in Mcdowell County WV "

" Good story... about a mining town in West Virginia... "

" Loved this book...I love Homer Hickam's writing style. He is so good at painting a picture for the reader! I plan on owning this one some day. "

" Once again Homer doesn't disappoint. A really good read. "

" I really like his writing style. "

" I love his writing. I've read a few of his now. This was kind of a mystery in a story about relationships. I really loved the last two lines of the Epilogue which gives credit to God and how there are miracles all around us if we just try to see them. "

" Definitely worth a read if you liked Rocket Boys "

" I read this book in 2 days, that is how much I enjoyed it. Most of the book reads fast, there was just one chapter that I skimmed over. "

" A young man's journey growing up in a coal mining town of West Virginia provides memorable insights into the fabric and culture of the mining community. A good description of the frailties and strengths of the human condition. "

" Third book of the Coalwood series... very good. "

" Not as good as the Coalwood Way, but satisfying enough. "

" More stories from Coalwood, West Virginia, from Homer Hickam. It's not as good as Rocket Boys (AKA October Sky), but it's still good and full of great stories. "

" The 3rd in the series about the author's growing up in Coalwood, West Virginia where he first dreamed of building rockets and working for NASA. "

" I really like the Homer Hickam work I have read so far. This is another autobiographical work covering the summer after Homer's freshman year in college. "
