Huehnergard J. A Grammar of Akkadian (Harvard Semitic Studies). - Scholars Press, 1997. - 647 p. + Keys ISBN-10: 0788503189 ISBN-13: 978-0788503184 John Huehnergard's 'Grammar of Akkadian' is an excellent book for learning a difficult ancient language.

Lincom, 2005. - 82 p. During the second millenium BCE, Akkadian served as the lingua franca of the ancient Near East. An extensive body of epistolographic texts written in this language was discovered at Tell el-Amarna, the modern name for the ancient seat of government of the Egyptian Pharaoh Amenophis IV (Akhenaton). The majority of the Amarna letters were sent to Egypt by the rulers of Canaanite cities which, at the time, were part of the Egy...

Worthington M. Complete Babylonian. - TY, 2010. - 377 p. Good recent work on Babylonian, which as I am sure all of you know is a late form of Akkadian, especially used since 2000 BC, eg for Hammurabi's code and all the way into the Biblical period. This book features Latin script only (with a lesson or two on cuneiform), very morphology-focused, not enough comparisons with Arabic, Hebrew or Aramaic, but it is friendly and worth while. I'm very...
