I can't be sure, but I believe this is the back of the Vogelsang book:

Anyone have them, and if so, good, bad or so-so?

sorry I cannot answer your question, as I have never seen these books....are there anymore in a series? Cheers, Torsten.

Anyone read these books yet? Any other new Ordensburgen books come to market lately?

Vogelsang

There is another book about Vogelsang, written by F.A. Heinen:
Vogelsang Von der NS-Ordensburg zum Truppenübungplatz in der Eifel
from Helios, ISBN 3-933608-46-5
The book tells the story of the Ordensburg, as well what happened with it after the war.
It's from 2002!

Mr. Arntz books on the subject are 3 or four I believe.They are well done, and a must for ordensburg interested collectors. (I also am one) No really new books have come out. I had planned to do one myself on the first class in 36 , but put it on hold. What is it you are trying to figure out ?

I have seen another called 'NS-Ordensburgen' by F. Heinen, which covers Vogelsang, Krossinsee and Sonthofen:
