This book was the basis for the 2008 motion picture by the same name. However, only the basic premise of a young man with the ability to instantaneously transport himself around the world, is shared. Thus the book and the movie complement each other, and the reader is left with an original experience even if they have seen the movie.

A fun exercise is to imagine what opportunities and pitfalls you would experience given the same ability. Try to see how many you considered that the author missed and vice verse.
