What exact Logos titles does everyone want for the two authors competing for the March Madness title?
I had recommended someone snatch up the Lloyd-Jones Ephesians books if he made to the final four. Sure enough, Lloyd-Jones made, but the March Madness sale included almost every title available in Logos by Lloyd-Jones EXCEPT the Ephesians series.
Will the same disappointment await us for the champion?
I voted for Wright. Of the myriad of titles, I primarily want:
The New Testament add the People of God - already own in print, but at 75% off would get Logos version too.
Jesus and the Victory of God - already own in print, but at 75% off would get Logos version too.
The Ressurection and the Son of God - already own in print, but at 75% off would get Logos version too.
Paul in Fresh Perspective
The Challenge of Jesus
Evil and the Justice of God
The Crown and the Fire
Sadly, The Climax of the Covenant is not available in Logos.
I voted for Wright also, because I do not have any Wright titles yet and have almost everything from Carson.
I wonder if people are just voting for who that like best instead of which author's discount will be best for building their library?
Randal M Lane:What exact Logos titles does everyone want for the two authors competing for the March Madness title?
None, as I wrote earlier. I did pick up six or seven Lloyd-Jones titles that I did not already own - but that is far as I am going.

I would like Carson's 3 volume "The Love of God" collection, but I would also be thrilled if I could get Wright's "for everyone" study books for almost criminal prices. Unfortunately, knowing my luck, neither will be on there.

Carson:
Pillar Commentary on John (Moo's Pillar Commentary on James didn't make the sale so I'm not counting on Carson's)
Wright:
Titles in the "For Everyone" Collection. If they make the sale how many I get will depend on if they are 60% or 75% off
Anybody read Surprised by Hope? It's been on a "maybe someday" list for me since I heard about it.
The only other things I'm considering from the whole Madness is Witherington's Acts and Mark Titles.

Surprised By Hope is a fantastic book. I used it along with Acorn's book, Heaven for a sermon series I did on the subject of heaven and eternity.

I too am looking forward for the For Everyone series, and I also would like the Twelve Months of Sundays books.
Would be so nice to have N. T.'s Romans commentary from New Interpreter's Bible, but it's not even under contract yet :(

I hope Logos doesn't settle for NT Wright's "for everyone" series. The beefier works by Wright are of far greater value to the Church and her ministers than his popular series. I would be greatly disappointed if the sale merely covered Wright's popular, footnote-starved works.
Some of the titles I would like to see Logos offer:
The New Testament and the People of God
Jesus and the Victory of God
The Resurrection and the Son of God
Surprised by Hope

I like that expression, "footnote-starved works" I believe it is a crime in some countries and wrightly so .
Hopefully Logos will provide the academic and less academic works of Wright . I plan to buy both if provided.

You won't be short of footnotes in NTPG, JVG, and RSoG (the Christian Origins series).
Surprised by Hope skims key material from RSoG, and adds a "so what?" Appropriate to a more popular audience, it has far fewer footnotes.
I think I already have almost all of Tom's books that Logos has, and put them to good use regularly.
I would like to get the following:
Paul: Fresh Perspectives by N. T. Wright
Judas and the Gospel of Jesus by N. T. Wright
Jesus and the Victory of God by N. T. Wright
The Resurrection of the Son of God by N. T. Wright
The New Testament and the People of God by N. T. Wright
Evil and the Justice of God by N. T. Wright
How Long, O Lord? Reflections on Suffering and Evil by D. A. Carson
Exegetical Fallacies, Second Edition by D. A. Carson
I am not sure what I will actually get though. Money is an issue, but I don't know if I can pass up the deals!

Ditto, with Floyd: used both books, and loved both. (aside on Acorn: there were times I thought he read a bit too much into things. I am not talking about disagreeing with a particular escatological hermeneutic, where we differed. What I am talking about was some of his charts with some chart entries that seemed forced). Surprised by Hope totally renewed my way of thinking about God's ultimate work of renewal and concreteness of the new heaven/earth. It was probably watershed for me. And I got Acorn's book based on a reference within surprised by hope.
As for my book wishes: I have a LOT of Carson already (Logos and hard copy). I have the "big trilogy" of Wright, and a couple smaller ones. So, here are the remaining Wright books I hope for (from my Logos online wish list):
I am curious about these, which I know nothing about:
If anybody has insight into the above six, I'd appreciate it. :)
I like Apples. Especially Honeycrisp.
Since the race is so close Logos should just offer both at 75% off. No sense in making 2,600+ potential customers disappointed!
