Here are two books I think cover ice climbing really well:

And a bonus... while not strictly speaking a book on ice climbing, it has a tremendous amount of useful ideas.

I will cover some good internet resources in a separate post.

 

What books can you recommend?

Will Gadd's book is the best (I think) ...

I think you guys have id'd all of the ones that I know about, other than Yvon Chouinard's classic "Climbing Ice".
