Very little wear, book appears nearly unused (the spine of this thick book is unmarked by the characteristic vertical creasing of ordinary use, just a trace of abrasion in the form of a tiny chip at the top edge of the spine), very light, almost imperceptible wear to the covers. Before there was an Internet spewing multiple conspiracy theories there was Illuminatus! Some claim it was humor, some claim it was a coded message. Here is the full trilogy of what was originally 3 separate books combined together in all its glory with insider jokes, rambling rantings and brilliant prose all blended together into a seamless work of supposed fiction. The books were titled: 1) The Eye in the Pyramid, 2) The Golden Apple, 3) Leviathan. If one is to understand the world of conspiracy before the Internet took over, this would be one source of insight, an opus that took years to write. From the back of the book: 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. *
