I have a few books on my shelf not listed here, but one book comes to mind which I find worth mentioning: "The Atheist Debater's Handook" ISBN-13: 978-0879752101

Reviews of it at Amazon are varied with some being very critical of his logic and reasoning. It's been many years since I first read this, so perhaps it is time to blow the dust off of it and read it again.
