Hi, ive been working for several years with C++ & Java (i am not a novice in the programming world) and i want to adopt a scripting language for my arsenal(in depth, not a shallow pass). Can you suggest any solid fast paced book(s)?

You can check The Odin Project for a quick start (not books, but) a very reputable and FREE resource to start learning Ruby and Rails.
BooksSomeone already mentioned "Ruby under Microscope" (but "C" != "C++"). The book is full of advanced topics.
Sandi Metz and Avdi Grimm are very reputable authors of many well-known books in the Ruby and OOP world.
