Any thoughts about this atlas? https://www.logos.com/product/127787/atlas-of-the-european-reformations
This resource as well - https://www.logos.com/product/53785/classics-of-reformation-spirituality
I got this: https://www.logos.com/product/145382/reformation-day-biographies-collection
It only had a few resources I didn't have, but it was still a good deal. I got it for the Luther and Melanchthon books.
I like it. It has nice maps that you probably won't find many other places.
Nice resource. See https://community.logos.com/forums/p/136793/885524.aspx

Great design! Style and sell.
The whole "Classics of Western Spirituality" series from Paulist Press is highly respected for their editions. That said, any series is bound to have highs and lows. I cannot give an opinion on the whole set - but will say the following -
1) From my understanding, this includes the standard edition of Arndt's True Christianity - a quite influential text.
2) A look at the titles included shows many significant spiritual figures in the churches of the Reformation.
3) In general for the figures about whom I know the most, I recognize that the editors have good academic credentials. In a few cases I have read and been quite impressed by some of their other work.
4) When I have looked at the various volumes I already have of this set, I have generally been impressed with them as resources to help me understand these figures.
While this falls quite short of an actual review. But it certainly looks interesting. Not sure it is interesting enough for me to pay $175 for the 14 new volumes I would get, but certainly interesting.

I'm tempted by the same two for the same reasons, plus Reformation Commentary on Scripture and Reformed Confessions of the 16th and 17th Centuries in English. I'm offered the biographies collection for $51.63, which considering it includes Brecht's 3-volume Luther biography is good value.
I got the biographies for $55.17 which included the 3-volume Luther, the book on the young Melanchthon (The Honeycomb Scroll), and the John Knox mini-bio (it's only 112 pages). That price beats Kindle prices for those same volumes.
I considered Reformed Confessions of the 16th and 17th Centuries in English, but I was afraid it would be more of a curiosity rather than a resource that would actually use. I'm hoping it appears in a reformed collection or base package in the future.

I went ahead and got this one. Looks good, but I wish maps would zoom out on the mobile app like Accordance has. Seems at times like Logos is a Cadillac with aftermarket parts. If they keep it up they're only gonna hurt themselves.

Thanks for everyone's input. I picked up the atlas as a start. As DAL said, it would be nice if the maps could zoom in and out but they still are good, especially at 40% off.
YAY!!!!
I have expressed frustration with the fact this was not up October 1st, so will be public here to express my appreciation and thankfulness that it is now!
Glad it was not a missed opportunity.
I'm interested to see Richard Muller's Post-Reformation Reformed Dogmatics on sale. How good is this reduction? Has it been on offer for less? https://www.logos.com/product/4463/post-reformation-reformed-dogmatics
I purchased Muller, Atlas, Lion.
