The Age Atomic is the sequel to Adam Christopher's debut novel, Empire State (reviewed here). Since that book was published, he's also produced a superhero novel, Seven Wonders, which has been in my TBR pile since last summer. (The Great Move happened just after that and really threw my reading schedule off; I still haven't caught up.)
The Age Atomic continues the story begun in the first installment of this series. When the tale opens, private investigator Rad Bradley is in the process of stumbling on a plot involving an army of robots. If that weren't bad enough, the Skyguard has disappeared. So has Captain Carson. The Fissure has as well, cutting off the Empire State from New York.
And speaking of New York, a dead woman named Evelyn McHale runs a government sponsored agency called Atoms for Peace. What she's doing is building a robot army to invade the Empire State.
