Looking at the Amazon TOC, it looks quite impressive, especially compared to nine (I think) Didache resources in Logos. Subject, by subject and about 550 discussion pages. And pricey too; Logos would be more affordable.
While I was checking Jefford out (he's well represented in Logos), his earlier 2013 book is interesting for Logos too. Mainly the source material (translations from latin, greek, coptic, georgian). Not familiar enough with the various editions. I suppose I should read my Hermeneia's Didache.

And not detracting from the suggested Didache volume, but AF'ers in Logosia might be reminded of:
The Apostolic Fathers: Greek Texts and English Translations, 3rd ed.
"The publisher . . . invited Holmes to prepare a more thorough-going revision of the Lightfoot textual notes and decisions and the English translation as well." I hadn't noticed it, following Holmes' updated english edition. Pricey. That'd be 1992 > 1997 > 2007 editions.

Again not detracting from Eric's suggestion, but while searching for another author/volume, I ran into this:
https://www.amazon.com/Didache-Original-Greek-English-Translations-ebook/dp/B0051ACN1I/ for .$99
Normally, I wouldn't note this volume on the forum, except
- It's 4 english translations of Didache (Hoole, Roberts-Donaldson, Lake, and Schaff). I think Logos has Lake and Schaff; not the other 2 earlier gentlemen.
- It's Kindle and the the TOC has 5 chapters (greek plus 4 english). And, it's painful, if you're not into Didache. The TOC also reverses 2 translations.
So. If you're familiar with Didache, the 2 non-Logos translations are interesting .... very similar to tracking NT translations.

Whenever I see someone suggesting "Book N" in a series, and I agree that it's a good book that Faithlife should get for Logos, I think they might as well look into getting the whole series while they're at it. Looks like there are a bunch of interesting volumes.

Further, there are some publishers that I wish they would just automatically offer. SBL Press is one of them. But I know that's probably not realistic for lots of reasons.

I've been browsing my 4-version Didache .... I need Logos to do Print Library for my Kindle books.
But regarding book groupings (and specific publishers), yes, that's always a frustration ... Logos has this but not that.
