My favorite is Java How To Program, 6th edition from Deitel and Deitel
jwenting will fill you on O'Reily books (sorry couldn't find the post where you mentioned last time, but it was nice collection)

Also consider that Sun has a ton of online Java tutorials for free.

hehe.
O'Reilly books... yah, nice coverdrawings them

As I've not studied C++ nor (introductory) Java in some years I can't suggest Java books that are similar to C++ books.
But here's a list to get you started:

- Head First Java, 2nd Edition
- Effective Java (not O'Reilly)
- Java Puzzlers (not O'Reilly)
- Java Concurrency in practice (not O'Reilly)
- (optionally) Java Network programming (the O'Reilly one, there are other books with the same title)
- Head First Design Patterns

other books pretty much depend on WHAT you want to do with Java. As you get deeper into the material you'll want more specialised books, like
- Java Server Pages
- Enterprise JavaBeans 3.0
- Professional Java Development with the Spring Framework (not O'Reilly)
- Spring MVC and Web Flow (not O'Reilly)
- Pro EJB 3 Java Persistence API (not O'Reilly)
- Java Messaging (not O'Reilly)

and many others.
I buy on average 1 book a month, most of them getting only partially read and then used as reference.
As people are clearly allowed to attack me but I'm not allowed to defend myself, I no longer post to this site.
