A Place That Used to Be

"Brittni Brinn returns with another chapter in her unique vision of a post-apocalyptic world. The author's trademarks are all here: a poetically-rendered attention to detail, an aura of mystery and awe that permeates the story from beginning to end, and a cast of fascinating characters trying to make sense of the harsh world around them. Highly recommended."

Alexander Zelenyj, author of Songs for the Lost and Blacker Against the Deep Dark

"A Place That Used to Be revisits many of Brittni Brinn's characters from her first novel, The Patch Project, and introduces several new characters into the novel's landscape. Readers get another glimpse into the post-"Event" world Brinn has created, where people who have inherited strange and mysterious powers begin to go through more changes, with both their powers and their personal connections. Brinn explores several dynamic relationships all set to a post-apocalyptic backdrop, offering a book full of hope and the courage of humanity during a time of despair, something that can be applied to our own daily lives."
