Bomb (Graphic Novel): The Race to Build--and Steal--the World's Most Dangerous Weapon by Steve Sheinkin, Nick Bertozzi

4.0

Nick Bertozzi and Steve Sheinkin's "Bomb" may be marketed as a young adult or children's graphic novel detailing the Manhattan Project, but it feels much more adult than the publishers let on. It focuses primarily on the espionage that plagued Los Alamos from its inception and got the USSR the atomic bomb 4 years ahead of where US Intelligence anticipated. This narrative is joined with the production of the bomb and the Norwegian efforts to (successfully) sabotage Nazi heavy water plans.
