Here is as far as I know the complete list of books by R.A.Wilson in the series
The Illuminatus! trilogy: consists of The Golden Apple, The Eye in the Pyramid
and Leviathan. They were cowritten with Robert O'Shea. About a year ago they
were reissued together in a single volume.
Lots of philosophy, SF, occult references, obscure jokes, mystery, conspiracies
Several plots related to each other in a psychedelic style (even references to
the MC5 and the Fugs, late Sixties bands)
Cosmic Trigger written in non-fiction style with some explanation of things
behind the events and ideas in Illuminatus! UFO's, Timothy Leary, Zen, etc.
Masks of the Illuminati James Joyce, Albert Einstein, and Aleister Crowley
have tea time with the neophyte Cabala student
The Illuminati Papers a collection of papers and articles and stories
more esoteric philosophical fun
Schrodinger's Cat trilogy consists of The Universe Next Door, The Trick Top
Hat, and The Homing Pigeons
characters from Illuminatus, or their counterparts in the universes next door
Even parallel stories to Illuminatus. More cosmic Humor
The Earth Will Shake Volume One of the Illuminati Chronicles
came out a few months ago, set around 1764 in Naples
looks like SF for D&D and fantasy fans@RUTGERS.ARPA:Heiny.henr@Xerox.ARPA (03/01/85)
From: Chris Heiny <Heiny.henr@XEROX.ARPA> The Illuminatus! trilogy was written by Robert Anton Wilson & Robert Shea (not O'Shea). "The Widows Son", vol 2 of the Historical Illuminatus is supposed to be out about now [has anyone seen it]. Maybe "The Earth Will Shake" 'looks like SF for D&D and fantasy fans', but it certainly doesn't read like it. "Right Where You Are Sitting Now", more non-fiction/autobiography similar to "The Cosmic Trigger". Chris Everything you know is false.
