A world-bridging '57 Chevy whisks friends Brent Sanders and Jerry Mahon to a nuke-ravaged USA. There, Brent and Jerry join the patrons of a drive-in movie theatre to wage nightly combat against gigantic mutant monsters. Amidst this life and death apocalypse, Brent falls in love with Lori Carpenter, a mysterious young woman who conceals a terrifying truth. For despite the atomic horrors Brent has already confronted in this post-nuked America, he doesn't know the true meaning of fear until he discovers Lori's dreadful secret, and then there is no turning back . . . In addition to Atomic Drive-In, the book includes five short stories featuring - in order of appearance - paranormal plants, roads not taken, Kaiju infestation, nanotech revenge, and Frankenstein's Monster at Christmas.
