Summary

Filled with sex and violence - in and out of time and space - the three books in this trilogy are only partly works of the imagination. They tackle the cover-ups of our time - from who really shot the Kennedys to why there's a pyramid on a one-dollar bill - and suggest a mind-blowing truth.

The Illuminatus! Trilogy Summary

The Illuminatus! Trilogy by Robert Shea

It was a deadly mistake. Joseph Malik, editor of a radical magazine, has snooped into rumours about an ancient secret society that turned out to be still alive and kicking. Now his offices have been bombed, he's gone missing, and the case has landed in the lap of a tough, cynical, streetwise New York detective.

Saul Goodman knows he's stumbled onto something big - but even he can't guess how far into the pinnacles of power this conspiracy of evil has penetrated. Brimming with sex and violence - in and out of time and space - the three books of The Illuminatus! Trilogy are only partly works of the imagination. They tackle all the important cover-ups of our time - from who really shot the Kennedys to why there's a pyramid on the one-dollar bill - and suggest a truly mind-blowing reality.

The Illuminatus! Trilogy Reviews

The ultimate conspiracy book . . . the biggest Sci-Fi cult novel to come along since Dune. * Village Voice *

An epic fantasy . . . a devilishly funny work, loaded with humour, puns, up-level ironies that make you
burst out laughing.

* New Age Journal *

Recognized as an episkopos, pope, and saint of Discordianism, Wilson helped publicize the group through his writings, interviews, and strolls. Wilson described his work as an attempt to break down conditioned associations, to look at the world in a new way, with many models recognized as models or maps, and no one model elevated to the truth. His goal being to try to get people into a state of generalized agnosticism, not agnosticism about God alone but agnosticism about everything
