For readers just past Captain Underpants, for those who relish the sort of humor of Louis Sachar and Jack Gantos, here is a hilarious novel by an author who truly gets boys. His main character Max Quigley is no angel; in fact one might call him a bully. But even as he taunts "wimpy Nerdstrom," he also begins to understand him. A most unlikely friendship grows. In the end, Max wins readers over, keeps them laughing, shows he is capable of change, and ultimately, brings us to a better understanding of boy dynamics.

“I have been acquainted with James for a long time and have seen him transform from an atheist to disciple of Christ. It’s breathtaking to realize that his stroll with Christ has been placed up in book form, An Almost Atheist Walks with Christ. This book not only points towards the door but it provides the key to help us to open and discover the One in whom is the wellspring of joy and life.” -Rev. T. M. Joel, PhD, Emirates Christian Fellowship (Dubai) “I have shared this amazing odyssey with James and have been taught and inspired by the work of the Spirit in the life of a man who seeks the Lord and his wisdom in both the small and the great things in his life. I am also a witness to his testimony and it is a delight to read the way in which he gives glory to God for his transformation....” -Pastor Bob Greene, Jubilee Christian Community Church, Victoria, Canada “I found the personal testimony written in the book An Almost Atheist Walks with Christ by James Roy to be a truly inspiring account of one life’s journey from ‘fear to faith’, ‘doubt to decision’ and spiritual ‘lethargy to life’....His testimony is demonstrated in his life; in his words, his actions and deeds. He leads by example and it is a pleasure to recommend both James and his book.” -Vic Hollefreund Th.B., M.B.S., Retired Missionary Pilot, Pastor, former Chaplin in the Canadian Armed Forces, Author of Destiny The Dawn of Evil
