Best Java learning book?
I've been trying to learn Java online (I've been using youtube.com/thenewboston's tutorials), but I think it might be easier for me if I get a book about it. I looked online, but most of the books I have ofund have no reviews or bad reviews. What is a good Java book I can try?
(By the way, my long-term goal is to be able to make video games from scratch.) Thanks.

Here is one of the best free ones -- 1st link
And, it's pricey, but 'Java6 Illuminated' gives practical examples with a tutorial manner.
Start learning the Oracle Java trails. NetBeans helped me a lot pointing to syntax and typo errors.
Too many video tuts leave me hanging. Having a book lets me consume material at my own pace and it's nice having an open book next to the video monitor instead of jumping back and forth between windows.
