Summary: Dear Bob, why have you abandoned us?
Comment: Robert Anton Wilson has proven to be capable of extraordinary talent with this series. Mixing fiction with non-fiction he weaves one of the most satisfying yarns published. The Earth Will Shake, The Widows Son and Natures God are a type of writing that I had previously not encountered through Wilson. This series is actually very inspiring, and written in such a dramatic way I am convinced it would make a most excellent movie. But, at the end of the series, the reader sees reference to the fourth book "The World Turned Upside Down", and alas, it is non-existant. Whatever reason Bob has for abandoning us devout readers of this series (I have read all three books three times and stolen much wit and demeanor from them) I urge you, dear Bob, please don't leave us hanging! Your Friend, Joey Bridges

Summary: The best of Wilson
Comment: This series of books I believe is the best thing that Wilson has ever done, and he still hasn't finished it yet. I believe that he might not be either. This series of books sparked off my interest in history and actually made it fun to peek between the edges of history and find some of the most interesting figures. I have to admit that this series changed my reality-tunnel (as Wilson calls it). This book is something of a coming-of-age story that has a similar feel to Araby, the short story in James Joyce's book "Dubliners." As he is a big fan of Joyce's, it may not be unintentional. The second is the action-adventure book, and the third is the more spiritual side. All of them have these elements, but the strong themes stuck out for me as I just detailed. After you read this series, research it...it is amazing what you find. So much of this is true that it is staggering that Wilson pulled all this together. Plus, the Masonic initiation scene is very true to reality that you wonder how he got away with writing about it.

Summary: The Illuminatii illuminated
Comment: The Historical Illuminatus Trilogy is Robert Anton Wilson at his most poetic. Combining the essential elements of his other works, (religion, politics, intrigue, mind-control, and the supposed differences between them) he weaves a tale of dashing and daring adventure, describing the growing pains of a young man destined to change the world, mostly against his own desires. Set amidst a vast backdrop of historical events, such as the French, Irish & American revolutions, scientific progress & religious intolerence, with a delightful dollop of sex 'n' drugs 'n' classical music, it's a wonderful series that beautifully suggests, if not illustrate clearly, how we have come to live in the world we see around us. The eternal question of what is good and evil is eloquently dealt with in these glorious books. Read, enjoy, devour the wisdom of R. A. Wilson, and he WILL change your life. Forever. And that is a very long time!
