Your religious bookshelf must be empty if you dismiss works by atheists and theists because of perceived bias. Again, it might be better to consider the argument, even if from a thorough third party review, than to immediately dismiss the work.
I have the 'End of Faith' and that's about it. I didn't mean to dismiss the book, I even said I'd consider reading it as long as I don't have to spend $35 for the privilege. I'd read an independant review for sure.
The point I was making is that it's good to look at the author's previous before reading it.
