Audiobook: Illuminatus! Trilogy


ILLUMINATUS! PART I - THE EYE IN THE PYRAMID
"It was the year when they finally immanentized the Eschaton." And so begins the original and genuine trilogy of conspiracies, Illuminatus!



ILLUMINATUS! PART II - THE GOLDEN APPLE
The Golden Apple serves as a perennial instruction manual for life on Earth in which you'll be lucky enough to learn: the Guerrilla Ontology of Markoff Chaney; the secret history of Atlantis; the conspiracy against sex; the origins of the Trojan War (starring Eris, the namesake of our solar system's newest planet); why gorillas and dolphins don't ordinarily talk to us; the startling truth about UFOs; and the final secret of the Illuminati.



ILLUMINATUS! PART III - LEVIATHAN
"The ultimate weapon isn't this plague out in Vegas, or any new super H-bomb. The ultimate weapon has always existed. Every man, every woman, and every child owns it. It's the ability to say No and take the consequences." - Hagbard Celine, Leviathan
Illuminatus! Part III cheerfully ushers in the apocalyptic high-camp conclusion of the Illuminatus! Trilogy. The 9th and 10th Trips are performed by a grand ensemble cast. The Appendices (which are most instructive) are performed by the incomparable Ken Campbell, bringing the audiobook trilogy full circle.
