I really liked the book hackers delight. Lots and lots  of fun bit
twiddling, I spent a couple of happy weekends with that book.

Probably the old standard is the book 'moving mount Fuji'. Its the how
to get a job a Microsoft in the 90s book. Lots and lots of silly
questions involving manhole covers and why door keys work the way that
they do. That said it will refresh your brain for interviewing with
formerly with 'it' managers.

Their is a book called Aceing the technical interview that I haven't
read but I have heard good things about.

And their are the red cover with as many ugly geeks as we can find
series of books called 'Programming Interviews Exposed'. Haven't
actually read that one.

Seriously read Mt Fuji and drop a copy of Knuth on the floor and read
and work though the next few pages and you should be good to go.
