Quantum Computation and Quantum Information. (buy it, borrow it).
Renato Renner and Matthias Christandl, QIT lecture notes.
Historic paper by Wiesner, in which he sketches the first scheme for quantum cryptography (and introduces quantum money).
Original scribbles by Schroedinger, in which he discovers entanglement, and is frankly puzzled by it.
