I just don’t know what to say, great book though. Loved all four fucked up fables.

James and Timothy knocked this out of the park. Rideshare is a horror filled with macabre, gruesome details that keeps you turning pages. The collaboration between these two is masterfully done.
When a client enters the car with Charlie, their horrifying tale begins. Each rider's story is sinister and disturbing, with vivid, gory descriptions. The pacing never lets up- you move from one messed-up tale to the next without a break.
Like so many others, once I started reading, I didn't want to stop. This is hands down one of my top reads of the year.
With James and Timothy behind the wheel, be ready to just sit back and buckle up-you're in for one hell of a ride.

Summary:
"Rideshare" is a brutal, episodic horror novel that follows a rideshare driver named Charlie as he ferries passengers across New York City. Each ride becomes a self-contained descent into human depravity, obsession, greed, and violence, slowly revealing that Charlie is far more than a passive observer. As the city changes—from Staten Island to Manhattan—so do the moral boundaries, culminating in a final reckoning that ties the rides together in a disturbing way.
Review:
"Rideshare" is extreme horror done with intent. Kaine and King lean fully into shock, but there’s a sharp thematic core beneath the gore: money, entitlement, addiction, and the quiet cruelty people inflict on each other when they think no one is watching.
Format is perfect—short, punchy chapters that feel like urban horror campfire stories. Each ride pushes further, making the book feel like a tightening noose rather than a random collection of shocks. Cynical, angry, and unapologetic. The book knows exactly what it is and never flinches.
The trigger warning (“ALL OF THEM”) is not a joke. This is graphic, nihilistic, and often cruel.
Want to thank the author for ARC copy of the novel.
