Norman Partridge is the one of the finest writers of short horror fiction going. The Man With The Barbed Wire Fists is his third and best collection. It even excited this long time fan. This quote from the Washington Post says it all: “[a talent] as crazy as a scorpion on a red-hot skillet– and twice as dangerous.” You’ve been warned!

One of the best writers of short horror/suspense stories.

Norman Partridge’s fiction includes horror, suspense, and the fantastic—“sometimes all in one story” says his friend Joe Lansdale. His compact, thrill-a-minute style has been praised by Stephen King and Peter Straub, and his fiction has received three Bram Stokers and two IHG awards.
