Beginning Java game development

Hello,

I'm currently looking for a book the covers "how to develop a game". I have basic knowledge of Java. I know: arrays,classes,GUI,basic animation with Timer class,basic graphic. I want to move on and start learning threads, collitions, keyboards and mouselistener and all other game related topic... I was wondering if you can suggest me a book that would cover these topic and help program my first game.

Thank you in advance
