Thank you so much to RDS Publishing and NetGalley for providing me with an e-ARC; it is greatly appreciated. 

This cover is perfectly suited to the first story in this collection, which also shares the book's name: Riding the Nightmare. The creativity that is shown throughout these stories is superb. There are subtleties, and things left unsaid that weave these stories into darker tales than you might think at first glance. 

Horror might not seem like the correct genre at first, but these stories are meant to sit with you a bit and let the true horror sink in. I found myself reading the last paragraph or two of some stories over again to make sure that I really understood what was going on. It may be a quick read, but there are stories in here that will really grab your attention and make you shiver.
