Hi, I''m almost done going through C For Dummies Vol 1. And I want to get into game developing in C/C++, but I''m not sure what a good book is to start. Can any one reccomend one for me? Thanks
If you''re interested in C++, I would recommend Thinking in C++, which is available free online:

http://www.mindview.net/Books/TICPP/ThinkingInCPP2e.html

Also, Al Stevens'' Standard C++ Bible is a good introductory book.

I would stay away from any ''Game programming in 21 seconds with C++'' type books. Learn C++ properly, then learn to make games using it.

Do you wish to go into OpenGL or DirectX?
OpenGL
Accelerated C++ by lipman and moo
I also suggest "Accelerated C++"
