Description

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 to 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 are all dying, or already dead...

Limitless is a thrilling exploration of the possibilities and dangers of unlocking your mind's full potential.
