Deep C programming has this old-school programming book humor and anecdotes from C compiler development inside Sun, so I would recommend reading it even on that basis alone.

This book was intended as a second C book for you to read, and for that I would recommend it. If you are familiar with low-level programming, you will learn about interesting language details and historical context. If you are coming from a higher-level language, this book will provide the background to understand C programming and tooling better.
