Bioengineered human neurons give Virgil and his scientific collaborators enhanced cognitive abilities. But then things start going wrong and Virgil slips away from the authorities in pursuit.
Soon Virgil and the world find that the technology doesn't want to be contained.

I really liked the obvious influence that the author's biology background had on the book and it was engaging from a page-turning-action point of view. What kept it from being a favorite for me was that the LOV stuff was so handwavy in a very magic way, and that the characters never felt very real to me.
