There is a great pragmatic programmers book on building a ray tracer that just came out: https://pragprog.com/book/jbtracer/the-ray-tracer-challenge

Its langauge neutral, which is interesting.

This is by Jamis Buck! He wrote Mazes for Programmers, one of the best programming books I've ever read. It is clear and well-explained; you could write the code from the text description without seeing the code samples, which is incredibly rare.

I had no idea he'd written more. Going by author alone, this book is a must-buy.
