Product Description

If there is a party at the end of the universe, Matt Wallace's The Next Fix will be the drug of choice. Two-time Parsec Award-winning author teams with Apex Publications for a new collection of 12 short stories and one novella. With characters as gritty as Sam Spade but as real as your next-door neighbor, The Next Fix cooks up a cocktail of futuristic trips that range from haunting to comedic to don't-turn-out-the-lights. From Wallace's introduction to The Next Fix: You're in my own little chimerical sphere now, but I'm no different than you. I don't shoot, snort, or roll, but I'm my own kind of fiend with my own kind of jones. You can simplify it, call it a fiction addiction. It's much more than that. Part of it's that whole ""art is not a mirror, it's a hammer"" thing. It's powerful. Wallace's quest for the next great high of the imagination takes the reader through the cannibalistic noir of ""The End of Flesh,"" the haunting beauty of endless seekers in ""The Losting Corridor,"" and on an action packed ride-along with offworld postal workers in ""Another Man's Run."" If you like a chaser of tech with your horror, humor with your darkness, and beauty with your grit, The Next Fix is your next high.

5.0 out of 5 stars Expectations surpassed...buy often, May 12, 2008
By Robo "Robo" (Milwaukee, Wisconsin United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Next Fix (Hardcover)
I had high expectations for "The Next Fix" and Matt Wallace has surpassed them all. The book is a must have for all horror junkies. I only wish I was a better writer so I could express how sick and wonderful this book is. Thanks Matt...the book was worth the wait.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wallace is the new AWESOME!!, May 11, 2008
Matt Wallace rocks the bells! In this collection of stories and one novella he shows the brilliance that made us all fans of his writing through the Variant Frequencies podcast. The Failed Cities Monologues, his stories, all of it is awesome! And you won't be disappointed here one bit: he keeps the action coming hard and fast in these stories. You'll hold this book so tight your knuckles will turn white before you even get through the first half, and you still won't put it down until you're done!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Set of Science Fiction Horror Stories, May 21, 2008
By P. Brian Garrett "Brian" (Boynton Beach, Florida USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Next Fix (Hardcover)
Matt Wallace has been providing his work for free for way too many years via podcasts. He along with other emerging writers such as J.C. Hutchins, Scott Sigler, and Mur Lafferty (and this is in no way a complete list of these new writers) are a new generation of creative voices that I feel will soon dominate much of the science fiction/horror genera. Wallace is among the best of the pack. The Next Fix is a must read for SF/Horror fans.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good dark collection of stories
Wallace is one of a new breed of authors that have ignored the traditional ways to publish their fictions. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars The Next Fix
I loved this book. M Wallace knows his stuff. Very engaging. Well worth reading if you are into short stories. Horror should be M wallace's middle name.
