What's the best Mac malware and virus scanner out there? Any suggestions / experience from the author or readers? Thanks!

Actually a tool by the author of the book:

Recommend all of the tools that Patrick has created:

I will second both recommendations made here. Wardle's tools comprise a majority of my suggested macOS security stack on machines at work now.
Nice thanks for sharing
The folks at Genius Bar recommend Malwarebytes pretty frequently https://try.malwarebytes.com/mac-antivirus-protection/
From a corporate perspective, either SentinelOne or CrowdStrike Falcon.
That stuff can bring the best of Apple's Macbook lineup to its knees.
I have seen it in use on Intel and M1 Macs in a developer-heavy userbase. It's fine.
