First up would be Game Artists Guide to Maya by SM's own Michael McKinley. Really good, very easy to follow and covers a little bit of everything. He has another book out which I haven't read yet :blush: , but I imagine it's definitely worth getting too. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Game-Artists...e=UTF8&s=books Foundation from Alias- I thought it was pretty good. A few mistakes, but covers a lot and is pretty fun and easy to follow. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Learning-May...e=UTF8&s=books Definitely recommend Stop Staring. It's a little heavy, but really covers doing a head and it's a good read. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Stop-Staring...e=UTF8&s=books Last Jae Jin Choi. A little confusing, but still good. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Maya%C2%AE-C...e=UTF8&s=books Hope that helps. And don't forget to check out the simply maya tutorials.
