'Tales' update: The hurricanes are slowing things down a bit


 

In the latest Tales of Illuminatus newsletter update, Bobby Campbell reports that hurricanes are delaying the delivery the paper version of the first issue:

"Just a quick update on a slight delay for our grand plans of world illumination...

"Ka-Blam Printing, the company handling both the printing and shipping for Tales of Illuminatus! #1, just so happens to be located in Orlando, Florida, which has been hit with back to back massive hurricanes over the past couple weeks.

"They seem confident that they'll be back in the office by the end of the week, and it's possible there won't even be a noticeable delay, but it seemed worth mentioning!

"I'll let you know when, in true jumpin' jack flash fashion, our humble little periodical is birthed from the hurricane crossfire and successfully on its way to your doorsteps :)))"

Bobby also provides a review of the new RAW biography, Chapel Perilous by Gabriel Kennedy, that is out on Oct. 22:

"It now appears safe to say the book I was gushing about last week is indeed Gabriel Kennedy’s RAW biography CHAPEL PERILOUS: The Life & Thought Crimes of Robert Anton Wilson. An absolutely spellbinding trip through the lives and ideas of Robert Anton Wilson, a book about RAW that is just as fun as reading a book by RAW, and an instant classic of Discordian lore. Highest possible recommendation!"

It is my understanding a paperback will be out soon, but I don't know more than that. Can somebody who knows more please post the information, with a citation?
