The Illuminatus Trilogy
(Robert Shea; Robert Anton Wilson)
Ever wondered why there is a pyramid on a one dollar bill? Does the question of who really shot Kennedy (and who else was trying to but didn?t manage to get their shots off in time?) still play on your mind? Fret no more ? The Illuminatus! Trilogy contains the answers.
The Illuminatus! Trilogy has been called many things - some believe it to be a work of underground science fiction genius, others believe it to explain every conspiracy theory ever and some think it is just very confusing. ?Brimming with sex and violence? (all of it highly entertaining) The Illuminatus! Trilogy tells the story of Joseph Malik who, as editor of a radical magazine, as been probing a little too hard into rumours of a mysterious and ancient secret society who have been attempting - and slowly succeeding ? in taking over the world.
Joseph has gone missing and the offices of his magazine have been bombed. On his tail his Saul Goodman a tough, cynical detective who?s only wish is to get back to his beautiful wife, last seen waiting for him in bed - naked. Both men are drawn ever deeper into a tapestry of mysteries scattered with wonderful characters including Fission Chips the British spy, Hagbard Celine patrolling the oceans in his yellow submarine, numerous beautiful women, several gods, Billy Graham and Howard the Porpoise.
An non stop roller coaster ride this book may just change your life ? or just give you a good laugh and something to read on the toilet.
