Limitless

by Alan Glynn

A stunning international thriller and a wild, compulsive ride into the greedy vortex of modern life.

Imagine a drug that made your brain function to its full potential.

A drug that allowed you pick up a foreign language in a single day.

Reviews

[Michael @ Knowledge Lost]

I think having seen the movie, made the book less enjoyable, all the key plot points are in the movie; minus all the long drawn out jargon that the author uses. There are some interesting things in the book that didn’t translate in the movie, but its too simlar. In the end the movie is much more enjoyable.
