If you enjoyed the first game, you will like this one as well, it's just more Anomaly. Worth playing. One gripe that I have to mention for this game, and only because this one in particular is a fairly extreme case, are the achievements. I'm an achievement hunter, and I'm pretty much a "single player games" only kind of person. Tons of games have single player, but also have multiplayer, and multiplayer achievements go with that territory, so, there are inevitably games that I will never 100%. That's part of the hunt, I guess. I accept that. With this game, I have done all of the achievements that you can possibly do single player. I'm at 46% completion. If this is something that you are concerned with, there's your warning.
