Compendium of the Emerald Tablets — Billy Carson has written six books, and people usually ask the same three things about them: what order they go in, which one to read first, and where to buy them. This page answers all three, with a short summary of each book in Billy's own framing, the current direct price, and the bundle that covers the full set.
The six books in publication order
1. Compendium of the Emerald Tablets (2019). Billy's first and most-read book. It walks through the history of the Emerald Tablets of Thoth the Atlantean, the mysteries written into them, and what they say about where humanity came from and what it can become — in plain language, with the connections to modern science spelled out. The audiobook, read by Billy, streams on 4BK TV. Buy the Compendium direct · Amazon
2. Woke Doesn't Mean Broke (2020). Six hundred pages on money and consciousness. The argument is that awakening and wealth are not in conflict, and the book doubles as the entrepreneurial and financial-literacy playbook Billy used to build 4biddenknowledge. Buy direct
3. The Epic of Humanity (2023), with Matthew LaCroix. Where did mathematics, agriculture, astronomy, law and civilization itself come from, and who were the megalithic builders? Billy and Matt LaCroix follow the evidence through Sumerian and biblical sources and the lost civilizations of antiquity. Buy direct
4. Fractal Holographic Universe: The Matrix Code Revealed (2024). The universe as a fractal holographic matrix — patterns repeating at every scale, everything connected. Billy lines the model up with what the Egyptians and Sumerians already understood and built into their monuments. Buy direct
5. Mysteries of the Forbidden Emerald Tablets of Thoth (2025). The companion to the Compendium, focused on Tablets 14 and 15: stargates, other dimensions, astral travel, the Atlantean "dwellers" and their link to Thoth's lineage and Enki, and the idea of Earth itself as a portal. It assumes you have read the Compendium. Buy direct
6. Manifestation Codes: Unlocking Reality with Thought, Frequency & Action (latest). Billy's newest book turns the teachings of Thoth and the fractal holographic model into a practical blueprint — the energetic laws behind creation, wealth and transformation, worked through thought, vibration and action. It is sold direct as an autographed copy. Buy the signed copy
Which Billy Carson book should you read first?
Start with the Compendium of the Emerald Tablets. It introduces Thoth, the tablets and the hidden-history framework that the later books refer back to, and it is the one Billy quotes most on the channel. After that, pick by interest: Fractal Holographic Universe if the science is what pulls you in, The Epic of Humanity for the ancient-civilizations thread, Woke Doesn't Mean Broke for money and mindset, and Mysteries of the Forbidden Emerald Tablets once you have the Compendium under your belt. Manifestation Codes works as a standalone, but it lands harder after Fractal Holographic Universe.
The bundle
The 4Bidden Book Bundle is all six books for $129.95 — about $37 less than buying them one at a time at direct prices — and the simplest way to read them in order.
Direct or Amazon?
Both are legitimate. Buying direct from 4biddenknowledge ships from the store, gives you the bundle price, and includes the signed edition of Manifestation Codes; it also supports the channel and 4BK TV directly. Amazon is the right call if you want Kindle or Prime delivery. There is no authorised free PDF of any of the books — the "PDF" results you will see in search are either scans or scams. The Compendium audiobook is on 4BK TV.
Books Billy Carson contributed to
Billy wrote the foreword to Egypt Before the Written History: The Lost Knowledge of Ancient Egypt by Egyptologist Mohamed Ibrahim Elbassiouny and to The Unspeakable Truth by Roderick Martin, and 4biddenknowledge publishes Becoming the Ultimate Human by Kenny Garcia and The Divine Quintessence by Mike Rashid King. All four are in the books collection.
