Can you recommend books about the Assyrian empire?

by telge

I just finished the Ancient Assyria: A very short introduction. I was hoping I would find some other books in the bibliography, but in fact I found too many. Now I can't decide where to begin. Could you give me an advice?

EDIT: Every era of the empire interests me, so that doesn't narrow down my choices.

Hi there -- in addition to what our users may be able to recommend, we have an "Ancient Near East" section in our books list, found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/wiki/books/middleeast#wiki_ancient_near_east which may be of use to you.
