The light from an old man’s past catches up to him. A salesman deals in secondhand stars. An artificial-intelligence unit designed for war has second thoughts on the battlefield. An entire religion springs from long-forgotten superhero comics.
These tales and more may be found in the pages of Strange Reports from Sector M, a compilation of thirteen short stories, flash fiction, and novellas from the ever-moving mind of author Matt Carson. A complex mix of science fiction, urban fantasy, and horror, Carson’s stories offer intricate worlds where no matter what else changes, humanity continues to struggle with questions of courage, grief, and mortality—as well as our shifting, often arbitrary societal norms.
Discover a dying police officer who is given a choice between a slow, painful death and a moment of unbelievable ecstasy. Watch as a woman struggles to make humanity’s last act meaningful. Revel as a corporate dictatorship reaps a terrifying but just reward from its victims.
Reminiscent of the speculative anthology TV show Black Mirror, Strange Reports from Sector M offers opportunities for both introspection and action-packed adventure set against the most unpredictable and fascinating of landscapes—the ever-changing human mind.

About the Author
After graduating from the University of North Texas, Matt Carson worked as a writer in journalism, advertising, and other assorted fields. His first love, however, has always been fiction.
Carson describes himself as an unrepentant fanboy and gamer with a deep interest in etymology, acting, and naval history. A geek and nerd from back when neither was considered cool, Carson has been fully enjoying the current “geek awakening” and contributing to it with his own stories, including his military science-fiction novel The Backwards Mask.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.

The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
