Any idea when volume 4 will be available in Logos?

Volumes 1-3 have been available for quite a while. Volume 4 came out in 2017.
They are only just eBooks, so it's not like there's any tagging that needs to be done.

I too would like to see volume 4 produced.
@DMM I wasn't familiar with this series, but in looking at them, I believe all four volumes would be better suited as Logos editions. Let me work on that…
Thank you! That would be awesome! I was kind of surprised that they weren't!
And does that mean volume 4 will be in the works? :-)
Yep!
Awesome. Perhaps they can make a bundle with all the volumes in it?
This is great news, I have volumes 1-3, the readers-only edition seems a bit limiting. Volumes 1-3 are important, but Volume 4 best sets the stage for contemporary uses of the evil eye amulets.
When I was in Turkey a while back, evil eye amulets were in every shop window. Both Muslims and Christians alike seemed to favor them for "protection."
@Rick Mansfield (Logos) Certainly, I've seen lots of them in the Middle East. Do you have any estimate for when this resource will be available?
@Chris Glenn no, unfortunately. We're in the beginning stages. The license has not yet been signed by the publisher, but it is in process.
@Rick Mansfield (Logos) Just checking, are there any updates for this resource?
Around two weeks ago the license was signed for this book as well as upcycles on the previous four volumes. Plans are to sell them as a set of four and individually. If you've already purchase the previous three as ebooks, you will automatically get the Logos editions when released. Look for a product page for the new volume and the set of four very soon.
Excellent, this fall I'm drill down on teaching 'Evil Eye' influences through the millenia. Volume 4 will help connect it to modern day Middle Eastern thought.
