Summary

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. A drug that helped you process information so fast you could see patterns in the stock market. Just as his life is fading into mediocrity, Eddie Spinola comes across such a pill: MDT-48 - a sort of Viagra for the brain. But while its benefits materialise quickly, so do certain unwelcome side-effects. And when Eddie decides to track down other users, he soon discovers that they’re all dying, or already dead.

A remarkably human tale

interesting, exhilarating and increasingly relevant to the challenges we as a society will likely face in the near future.

Full steam ahead.

Fast paced, clever and well worth a listen.
Read / listen before you watch the film.

Film was better paced than the book

Narrator was good
Story got caught up in finance and conspiracy rather than the opportunites

Thoughtful and engrossing

Having watched the film prior to reading this, I was pleasantly surprised by the major differences in the story. I was engrossed from the off and looked forward to the next listening. Would highly recommend and would encourage anyone who maybe thought the film was below par for the concept.

This was a great book, by far one of my favourites

Great book, much better than the film and managed to finish it in about 4 days, loved it and would 100% recommend it. It very much has a Lucy meets wolf of wall street feel to it. x

Decent book

I would say that the film does the book enough justice that it is not worth reading the book and watching the film, but if you haven't seen the film, then the story is worth hearing.

Interesting first experience of an audiobook.

As a fan of the Limitless movie, I really enjoyed listening to the audiobook. It's just as good or even better than the film. The pace slowed for me a bit during the focus on trading, so I took a break, but I eventually came back to it and enjoyed the rest of the book. Maybe it was written like that on purpose. This was my first audiobook, and I look forward to listening to more, it's such a nice rest for the eyes.
