I read God is not great by Christopher Hitchens.
Does anyone have any suggestions for similar books by atheist authors?

And Small Gods from Terry Pratchett.

Ah, Sir Pterry.... how I miss him. I remember going to the bookstore every couple of months and heading straight for the fantasy section to see if there was a new Discworld title out yet...
We shall not see his like again.

You might like Jordon Peterson's Maps of Meaning for the value of myth and religion to culture. The covers the material in his YouTube videos Maps of Meaning and also The Psychology of the Bible.

Yeah Origin of Species and the Descent of Man by Charles Darwin. They say it all, - the rest is just footnotes in the margins of cultural mythology.\

@RobLes And the English is so beautiful too.

The God Delusion by Dawkins has a similar and complementary tone. These two books are considered by many to be paragons of modern dissertation on the issue.

A lot of them say the same things, but I wouldn’t recommend so many atheism books as I’d recommend science positive books. Like Carl Sagan’s Demon Haunted World
