"The biggest sci-fi cult novel to come along since Dune".--The Village Voice.
Filled with sex and violence--in and out of time and space--the three books of The Illuminatus are only partly works of the imagination. They tackle all the coverups of our time--from who really shot the Kennedys to why there's a pyramid on a one-dollar bill.
Robert Shea was the co-author of the Illuminatus! trilogy with Robert Anton Wilson and the author of six other novels including Shike, All Things Are Lights, The Saracen, and Shaman. He died in 1994.
It was a deadly mistake. Joseph Malik, editor of a radical magazine, had snooped into rumors about an ancient secret society that was still alive and kicking. Now his offices have been bombed, he's 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. Filled 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 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.
