Book Reviews by Roy Williams



Since mid-2006, Williams has written numerous book reviews for both The Sydney Morning Herald and The Australian. Only some of the books had a specifically religious (or anti-religious) theme, but Williams has sought to bring a Christian sensibility to all of his reviews (as well as wide-ranging knowledge of many other subjects).

Here are links to some samples of his work:
