I recieved my copy in the mail a couple days ago and could hardly sleep that night. John did a wonderful job with it. It is a dream come true for me...
I'm hoping to talk John into producing my translation of Lemuria by Karl Hans Strobl which I'm currently working on.

stores.lulu.com/anarchistbanjo"Illustrated Stories by Hanns Heinz Ewers" is a hard bound book with dustcover that contains three illustrated stories that were at one time published individually in the German. They are: "The Hearts Of Kings", an interesting story concerning the French revolution and a strange painter that paints with the hearts of the kings of France. It is illustrated by Stefan Eggeler. "The Sad Story Of My Drying Out" is an account of HHE's experiences with prohibition during his enforced stay in the United States immediately before and after World War I. It is illustrated by Oscar Berger. "Edgar Allan Poe" is HHE's tribute to Edgar Allan Poe. This contains the original illustrations, the original intro by Aldele Lewisohn and the poem "Sphinx" plus a short essay by Joe Bandel. All stories are translated by Joe Bandel in cooperation with the Ewers estate. I've decided to clean up my act a bit and focus on quality paperbacks since that is what sells. But I plan to publish certain books such as this one, "A Book of Fables", "The Hired Grandmother and Other Fairytales", and "Mogani Nameh" only as hard cover editions. I hope to have Hanns Heinz Ewers Volume II out next month. Then I will resume work on Karl Hans Strobl's "Lemuria". Hopefully it will come out this summer. -joe

Alraune Centennial Edition is Here! Alraune was first published in 1911 and the centennial edition of this classic work is now available in hard cover and quality paperback! It includes an introductory essay, Alraune-A Haunting Presence, by Dr. Kugel, noted Ewers biographer and manager of the Hanns Heinz Ewers estate. This is the first time it has been shared in the English language. The new cover design is by Dr. Kugel from the original cover art by Ilna Ewers-Wunderwald. There is also an Alraune Chronology by Dr. Kugel and an essay by Tyler Davis, Alraune's Alure, as well as my own essay, Translating Alraune. As a special treat are some photos of Brigette Helm and Hildegard Knef as Alraune and original illustrations by Ilna Ewers-Wunderwald from the 1911 edition. This is a large edition with 395 pages. bandelbooksonline.com |

I am pleased to announce that my translation of Hanns Heinz Ewers "Sorcerer's Apprentice" is now available in Hard Cover, quality paperback and pdf version at lulu.com. Here is the link: www.lulu.com/spotlight/anarchistbanjoThe First Volume in the Frank Braun trilogy. This is the first uncensored English translation of "The Sorcerer's Apprentice". It includes an Introduction by Dr. Wifried Kugel; the poems, "Prometheus" by Goethe,and "Hymn to Satan" by Carducci; "The Satanism of Hanns Heinz Ewers", "Duality-The Male", "Duality-The Female",and "Duality-Sexual Alchemy" by Joe Bandel and the complete text of "Synagogue of Satan" by Stansislaw Przybyszewski also translated by Joe Bandel. For several years after writing "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" Hanns Heinz Ewers gave highly successful lectures on "The Religion of Satan" which were based upon "The Synagogue of Satan". His view of "Satanism" is highly different than what is popular today and shows that his belief in the future of humanity lies in the balancing of the male/female aspects within us and not in two eternal forces in opposition, good/evil. For him Satanism was the emancipation of women. Due to the extensive footnotes/endnotes and illustrations this will not be offered in epub version. The epub version has difficulty with both footnotes and large numbers of illustrations. On a side note, Side Real Press has the text prepared for "Hanns Heinz Ewers Brevier" which will also be coming out soon in limited edition through Side Real Press and regular hardcover at Lulu. More on this when it is available. thanks, -joe |

I have made a major decision to offer books through the distribution package that Lulu offers. This means ISBN numbers, google search abilities, and the ability to purchase through Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble. Bookstores can also order copies through a warehouse.
Unfortunately this also means they get a percentage as well.
Alraune will be available as quality paperback with no extra material other than the Blaine illustrations.
Sorcerer's Apprentice will be available as quality paperback with no extra material other than the Blaine illustrations.
Hanns Heinz Ewers Volumes I & II will be available as quality paperback.
Only Hard Cover editions will retain extra material as Deluxe editions. These will only be offered by Lulu publishing as before. I will try getting Hard Cover editions of HHEVI and HHEVII up for those wanting them as well as epub editions.
I have refused to do this before in an effort to provide books as cheaply as possible considering that the Ewers estate still gets royalties on each sale. What I have found is that these books are almost too hard to find by the average person.
Hard cover book sales will not be effected. More hard cover books will be offered. Quality paperbacks will see a hike in price as soon as they are approved for this program. This will be a few weeks. Until then the link below will still work. Use it or wait for the hard cover which will be more reasonable.
The bottom line is that these books need to be offered through Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble so that more people can find them. At least the paperback editions.
I apologize for this but find it neccessary.

I recieved a copy of Hanns Heinz Ewers Volume II that had problems with the printer at Lulu. It seemed as if the gutter had problems. I didn't even know that it could print a gutter wrong. The book is still readable.
I've reset things and hope it was only a one time glitch. If anyone receives a damaged book please email me with your mailing address and I will send you a different copy.
This was a printing problem and nothing that I could do about. The book was still readable but that is not the way I sell them. If you receive one of these email me at:
joebandel@hotmail.com
Very sorry about this.
-joe

Its been a long time coming and finally its done! The complete uncensored Vampire book is in John Smith’s capable hands at Sidereal Press. In the meantime I’ve made it available as an ebook through Kindle at Amazon.com. Each country has its own version so go to your Amazon store and check it out. Here are a couple links just to try it out: Vampire Amazon US Kindle book This has been a labor of love and I must say that it is certainly worth the wait! There have been over 150 pages added that were not in the John Day edition so you might not recognize the story when you read it. There is a special promotion that ends Saturday where it can be downloaded for free as a Kindle book. I've also made another book available till Friday, " Radical Satanism: The Tantric Path of Divine Counterparts" Radical Satanism: The Tantric Path of Divine Counterparts US Amazon Kindle books |

Just checking to see how the Hanns Heinz Ewers Volume III is coming along. The first two volumes were fantastic and I am eagerly awaiting the third.

In the Russian social network "VKontakte" Ewers has a fan base of many thousands. There is an explanation for this. Atrocious new wave band Agatha Christie has composed a couple of songs based on the most famous works of Ewers. The group consists mainly of fans of this band.
