Interesting New Additions to CP
If you have not checked out Community Pricing recently there have been some interesting developments. Besides more classic commentary upgrades for Matthew and Hebrews there have been additions of more recent classic fiction including works by Jules Verne and Jack London. These fiction authors are not "theological" works but I'd like to have them in my Logos library. Is anyone else interested in these?

What makes Logo's worth getting instead of Kindle books is the search ableness, do you really need to do a search with Verns?

I might want them, but I don't know why I would waste money on this. Logos would have to work hard to prove to me that a personal book wouldn't be just as good.

I'm sure this is a "Noet" push. There will be English majors who would want this, and who would want them searchable. It's just not worth it to me. If the price were right... But the scale doesn't go low enough.

I jumped on all four - thanks for the heads up Bruce. London and Verne were some of my favorites

Well, I guess maybe abondservant will hopefully 'lead the band'. However, I agree with Alabama; the CP model vs the PB model would seem to be a stretch, without millions of Noet'ers.
Maybe they're testing the waters.

I would be interested in the classic fiction, but there is simply too much at one time (even on CP since I need to be able to bid on pre-pubs).

And H.G. Wells and Herman Melville.
But they didn't include An Outline of History in the Wells collection. Surely a valuable work for biblical scholarship (LOL).
