Dreadrick Town Kindle Edition

by Mike Minicky (Author, Editor), Catti-Brie Minicky (Illustrator) Format: Kindle Edition
4.2 out of 5 stars (23)
Expert craftsman Steven Masterson is offered a chance to restore the crumbling buildings of Dreadrick Town, Missouri. A Job that promises to save his family from financial collapse. With no other options left, Steven moves his wife Elizabeth and their sone Jacob from Florida to a town that appears quiet, empty, and desperate for revival.

But Dreadrick Town is not dying.

It is feeding.

As restoration begins, Jacob notices unsettling changes in the townspeople, strange patterns in the buildings, and secrets buried deep beneath the town's carefully maintained facade. What begins as suspicion turns into terror when he uncovers a truth older that the town itself. One that is rooted in blood, hunger, and a pact that was never meant to be broken.

Evil and the supernatural thrive in Dreadrick Town, hiding in plain sight and waiting for the right moment to rise again.

Dreadrick Town is a relentless horror thriller where survival depends on uncovering the truth. Some towns never let their secrets leave alive.

Be ready to be caught up in the supernatural.
I couldn’t put the book down. The words flowed so well I could imagine what the author was describing. I don’t want to give any spoilers, but the author definitely leaves the story to have a second book. I feel like the back story for each character was well written with surprises that keep you enthralled. A book worth reading and an author to definitely follow for more. Happy Reading!!!!

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Town Full of Supernatural
    Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2025
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This book is packed full of suspense and thrill. From page one Mike has you wondering what is going on in this small town. What horrors does this small town hold? From werewolves, to witches, to people with the abilities to control cats this book holds supernatural to a new high!

    As Jacob and his family move to a new town to do a full restoration job for the Mayor weird things start happening. Jacob starts to feel an undeniable connection with one of the girls I'm town. Wildlife starts attacking not only his family but other people in and visiting the town. There's too many questions not being answered, too many things happening all at once.

    This town needs something much more than a restoration. It needs an entire clean out!

    Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2024
    Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase
    This was a well written supernatural-horror thriller! Between the mind controlled cats and werewolves… the excitement never ended! Jacob and his family lived (or did they) through their worst nightmares when they moved to Dreadrick Town. The “bad guys” in the story were as evil and intense as they should’ve been! This author does a FANTASTIC job at writing horror scenes. It made me uncomfortable and uneasy at times… in the best of ways. As a horror reader… this gave me my fix. I loved everything about Mike Minicky’s book and would definitely read more from this author.

    I really enjoyed reading this book. The story line was well thought out and the characters were great. It will keep you on the edge of your seat. I read it in one sitting because I couldn’t put it down. Can’t wait for the next book from this author, I have now read all four of his books and have become a fan of his writing style. Worth the purchase. I would recommend this book.

    2.0 out of 5 stars Didn't Quite Do It For Me
    Reviewed in the United States on July 11, 2024
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    I wanted to like this story more than I did. The villains are straight up monsters - literally and figuratively - and werewolves are presented as a kind of boogeyman ("The Tainted Ones") within the monsters' own lore. I wish it was more developed, but we don't even get into it until the back half of the book. It is an intriguing premise that has real promise, but one that is not well served by the narrative.
     

    Although there are flashes of brilliance, the prose can be inelegant at times. The author often relies on telling rather than showing. The protagonist is a high school senior, but he is chastised by his mother for using the words "hell" and "freaking" at various points. I would expect to see something like that in a Young Adult story. Similarly, the author's reliance on superlatives strains credibility in a way that could be forgiven if this were for a younger audience. Given the profanity, gore, and violence (some of which is artfully written), this is clearly not a YA book, so the tonal inconsistencies are jarring.

    Overall, the book could have benefitted from another editorial pass to really give it some polish. If you're interested in a book with a new perspective on werewolves, some bloody horror, and a few technical bumps along the way, this one might be for you.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Book Worth Reading.
    Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2025
    Format: Kindle
    I really liked this book. It has some great twists and turns and keeps you guessing all the way to the end. It has creepy things that go bump in the night. It is a story about Jacob, whose family moves to Missouri because his dad got a job remodeling some old buildings in a dinky town. When they get there, Jacob starts noticing some really weird things going on, and he is bound and determined to find out what it is. If you are looking for a paranormal suspense book that you can't put down, then I highly recommend this one. Two things I've learned from this book are don't move to Missouri, and if you have cats, be sure to lock them out of your room when you go to bed. I gave this book a five-star because it was entertaining, it was well written, and it kept me guessing. It's definitely a great book worth reading.

    This is the third book I had the
    pleasure to read by this author.
    His writing style and world building are amazing in my opinion. On that being said I definitely enjoy the mind controlled when it came to the cats & werewolves. The bad ones are beyond evil that you could imagine. The horror the supernatural & thriller would have you wanting more. And when you thought you had everything figured out wrong you didn’t. This author will have you guessing all the way til the last page & BAM. The urban fantasy with this book will have you at the edge of your little seat and if you have the imagination then you will agree with me. Mike you did an incredible job with this book can’t wait to see what lies ahead.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The cats are more than meets the eye
    Reviewed in Spain on April 15, 2024
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    I borrowed this book thanks to my Kindle Unlimited subscription and read it on my tablet using the Kindle app.

    I have read all four books by this author, and he always amazes me with how he is able to maintain his descriptive and action-packed writing style while writing such different stories with such great results. This time, we encounter an urban fantasy story with strokes of the noir style by the author. Jacob and his family moved from Florida to a small town in the middle of nowhere because his father has been hired by the mayor of the town to work on the restoration of the town. Soon, he and his mother realize that this town is far from normal and that the cats of the neighborhood act quite strange. This will lead to a story full of fantastic creatures, some people who are not what they are supposed to be, some gory scenes, and a last part of the book that will leave you speechless (you will feel the destruction of the battle scenes like watching a Hollywood movie).

    I simply loved this book from page one, and for me, it could be the best piece written by this author so far, and I wholeheartedly recommend it.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Went In Blind — Came Out Completely Hooked!
    Reviewed in Canada on December 8, 2025
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    I went into Dedrick Town knowing almost nothing about the story or the author. At first, I honestly thought I’d been recommended a YA book — but I was quickly (and pleasantly) surprised by how intense, layered, and mature the story actually is. It hooked me fast.

    The world-building feels rich and lived-in, and the characters are so vivid that it’s impossible not to get attached. One character in particular — the unforgettable one-eyed witch, Mariable — absolutely stole the show for me. She jumped off the page in the best way.

    After discussing the book at a club, I learned that many of this author’s characters appear across his other works, which makes the whole universe feel even more thoughtful and interconnected. Now I’m excited to read more just to see how everything ties together.

    I also had the pleasure of meeting the author, and he was genuinely warm, engaging, and clearly passionate about his craft.

    If you enjoy richly woven stories with standout characters and a surprising amount of depth, Dedrick Town is absolutely worth picking up.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A classic horror
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 23, 2025
    Format: KindleVerified Purchase
    This was my Halloween read of 2025!

    Jacob and his family have recently moved from Florida to Missouri and Jacob isn't happy about it. His father, Steven, was offered the job of restoring old houses and mansions in Dreadrick Town, and Jacob soon discovers the family had to move for financial reasons.

    They are not in the town twenty-four hours when Jacob and his mother Elizabeth, discover that Dreadrick Town and its inhabitants are strange. The animals are also acting weird. Mike writes very well the sense of threat and the paranoia of being constantly watched throughout the book. It is an eerie feeling that is carried throughout the story.

    As the book delves deeper into the story, the reader discovers the supernatural element. It is well written, fast-paced and gives a nostalgic nod to horror and creepy books and movies of the 1980's. This is also set in that time period. There are other themes to the story as well, love, fated love, adventure, friendship and family connection. I loved the layers to this story. I loved the creepiness and heart pounding moments described so well.

    And the ending . . . It leaves the story open to continue, but it also works as a stand alone to let the readers' imagination do the work of what might happen afterwards.

    A recommended read, especially during spooky season, as it will give you the the thrills and gore of a classic horror.
