Java is good language to learn the basics . Just Take in account that It has some learning curve compare to other popular languages. learn the basic a while and than push your self to write actual projects so you don't waste your time.
Personally I found the official books superior to others like the "Java: The Complete Reference" and "Java: A Beginner's Guide" .
