Also becoming curious in quantum computing again (the current wave in classical software development is depressing IMHO so looking for an alternative for the futre). I read a good portion of Quantum Computing for Computer Scientists as an undergrad studying physics for a paper, but in searching for new texts, most people point to Nielsen and Chuang yet comment it is dated. Any good literature reviews out there to consider to get the new content Nielsen and Chuang don't have (while studying the Chuang's book as well)?

No, sorry, it's not really my field. However, my impression is that the results in Nielsen and Chuang haven't been superceded or anything, it's just that there's just more built on top of them. In other words, I think you're fine reading that cover-to-cover and worrying about further reading afterwards.
