Fortunately there are fewer books focused on the JVM.  The two main ones
are:
   Tim Lindholm & Frank Yellin, The Java Virtual Machine Specification
   Addison-Wesley, 1997.  ISBN 0-201-63452-X

   Jon Meyer & Troy Downing, Java Virtual Machine
   O'Reilly, 1997. ISBN 1-56592-194-1

Of these, I like the second slightly more but they can complement each
other on certain topics.  The Meyer book also includes a copy of Jasmin:
an Assembler for the JVM.

You can also browse/download an electronic copy of the Lindholm book
online at:
   http://www.javasoft.com/docs/books/vmspec/index.html

You can get a copy of Jasmin from:
