same here.
i worked with max in the past but am trying to work with maya now.

..well i searched cgtalk and found out that alot of people the "killer tips" book for maya.
so i ordered that from http://www.superbookdeals.com
i also got the "Mel Scripting for Maya Animators".

can't tell you if they're worth their money because they haven't arrived here yet.

but i'd suggest to either search the site for "Understanding 3D Animation Using Maya" or google it and try to find reviews.

good luck.
