Praise for LIMITLESS:
“Alan Glynn has created enough twists and thrills to keep readers up late—even without resorting to illegal and dangerous substances.”
—
The New York Times Book Review
“A compulsive chemical thriller.”
—
San Francisco Chronicle
Praise for BLOODLAND:
“Scarily plausible in a way that eludes most thriller writers, with an alarmingly authentic cast of control freaks and loose cannons … I’ve not read such a multilayered, expertly plotted portrayal of arrogance, greed, and hubris in a long time. [There are] echoes of John le Carré,
24
, and James Ellroy here, but Glynn’s talent is all his own, and his ability to ratchet up the tension is eye-popping.”
