McMillan on Options
Lawrence G. McMillan
This is an academic book and it's not light reading. I went through it twice. Would not recommend it as a primer, but certainly fills in the blanks after the basics are down.

Options As a Strategic Investment
Lawrence G. McMillan
Good place to start. Certainly the most highly-regarded author. Has real-life strategies.

The Options Course : High Profit & Low Stress Trading Methods
George A. Fontanills
As an author this guy can be a little too conversational, but the concepts of delta-neutral are very helpful to know. Makes "spreads" and "straddles" easier to understand.

I tried this link and Amazon gave me a hard time:
amazon.com

Basically, use this string for a search:
Investments & Securities Options

RGrey, ran across another book that I really liked: The Options Advisor by Bernie Schaeffer. Had forgotten that in my original list.

FWIW, I really liked the book, but I didn't (and won't) sign up for a $3k/year options service.
