The Asian Review of Books is an online book-review publication based in Hong Kong.

It describes itself as "the only dedicated pan-Asian book review publication" and as a "forum for discussion of key contemporary issues by Asians for Asia and a vehicle of intellectual depth and breadth where leading thinkers can write on the books, arts and ideas of the day",[1] and aims to bring books by Asian authors to the attention of English-speaking readers.[2]

It was founded in 2000 by Peter Gordon, co-author of The Silver Way: China, Spanish America and the Birth of Globalisation, 1565–1815,[3] who has lived in Hong Kong since 1985.[2][4] Since 2021 it has also made available a weekly podcast.[5]
