If there are any books, even text books, about energy trading I would also love to get my hands on those.

Barbarians at the Gate
Den of Thieves

Liars Poker is an awesome book. Monkey Business is amusing.

The Money Culture by Michael Lewis.

Not as good as Liar's Poker, in my opinion, but interesting.
