Happy New Year- Final 2021 Update!

2021 was an eventful year- mostly for the worse, but for literary work by yours truly, it was amazing; 63,136 copies of my paperback literature sold since the year began (a few more copies will be sold today, but it's New Years' Eve so I don't expect sales to be particularly high.) My first nine compilations are done, and my first hardcover is currently in review- of course, it is a hardcover version of the "Book of Forbidden Knowledge", which alone has sold several tens of thousands of copies since I edited it years ago. I expect this release will be quite popular.

I was not able to get to hardcover work done for my compiled titles, but that is not a problem- it was a decent tradeoff to complete an extra five edited works and literally complete half of 2022's work before the year even switches over. Anyways, I plan to create a couple more compiled works, so it makes sense to wait anyways, to soothe my raging OCD. I was also able to obtain a half dozen more works to edit- and I am well on my way to completing the next slew of edited releases, which should all be done before January ends.

Good as though 2021 was (for literature anyways) I expect 2022 will be astronomically better- onward!

The Poetry of the Talmud: Now Available!

CLICK TO PURCHASE

This volume (and the last edited work of 2021!) is a plethora of analysis regarding the Talmud and its content; it covers the hyperbolic and metaphorical nature of a great deal of Rabbinical opinion, and a number of little cautionary tales usually involving animals, as well as the Greek influence on some of the content, in which their stories were re-interpreted according to the premises of Judaism. It is heavily sourced both to the Talmud and to contemporary academic works.

The Apocryphal Books of the Old and New Testament: Now Available!

CLICK TO PURCHASE

This book is a detailed analysis of every book of the Apocrypha, written a full four decades prior to the Dead Sea Scrolls being discovered. It speaks about the content, purpose, authorship, and dating of each work- not just the well known ones like the Book of Enoch, Gospel of Nicodemus, or the books of Maccabees, but also lesser-known ones like Bel and the Dragon and the Book of Judith. It is fairly comprehensive and academic in tone.

The Sanitary Code of the Pentateuch: Now Available!

CLICK TO PURCHASE

This fine work is an academic and historical treatment of the various laws and rituals related to ancient Judaism in their Pentateuch, relative to dietary restrictions, the concept of sanitation, disinfection, and epidemic disease (specifically, leprosy.) It is quasi-revisionist in that the author spends some time attempting to explain the relevance of these practices from a then-modern late 19th century viewpoint (for example, swine being banned from consumption due to trichinosis, or single-crop field planting being related to crop rotation.)
