Head First C# is a good book, I have it.
But then again it's meant for people who are new to programming in general.
Though, it's still a pretty good book.

Programming C# 3.0 is pretty decent
Sams Teach Yourself C# in 24 Hours is pretty good also

Now that you have the c# books have you considered e-learning through i-tunesU or Mit OCW. They both make learning much easier and enjoyable.

Why spend the money on a book? There is usually nothing in a book that you cannot find online. I suggest just reading some tutorials online.

Especially if you already have a background in C++, I dont think it will be a huge stretch to learn C#.

Here is a good tutorial site for C#.
