Why is this only in audio?

There are a bunch of books that are only in audio. I don't know why. Probably has to do with rights, but it's irritating when it's a book you want, and it's not available in a Logos or e-book edition.
Here are some others that have this problem.

That's just from going through one page (of 23) of search hits on Zondervan audio books and looking them all up to see if there was a corresponding print version. I don't have time to do all the rest of the catalogue, but I suspect there are lots more.

Thanks Rosie, I had not done a search yet, but yes it can be a little disconcerting- I guess there must be a need there for others.

Seems odd to me that Ligonier would grant audio rights but not book rights, especially when they have a number of other resources in Logos. Definitely a mystery.

Yes it is a mystery. It seems to me that Logos is trying to promote audio products. While sometimes I do listen to audio bibles for the most part I would much rather read the text than listen to it. I can read it faster and comprehend it deeper by reading and studying it.

They need to do a better job with the TOC for audiobook and audio lectures. They’re not providing titles only “episode 1, 2, 3, etc.“ That doesn’t help to navigate the subjects being discussed.
