I've have the Martin Evening book and the Scott Kelby Lightroom 3 book, and I have to say I prefer the Kelby. But it really depends what style you like - Kelby walks you through a workflow, and has some Kelby "humour"; Evening is more reference type. Either would do you very well I would say.
Try Real World Camera Raw with Adobe Photoshop CSxx* Originally by Bruce Fraser and Jeff Schewe (although maybe the latest version is just by Jeff Schewe, as Bruce Fraser died a while back). It really covers everything from start to finish.
* There have been updates with each iteration of Photoshop so I guess you will the PSCS5 version.
I took pot luck at my local Public Library (remember them?!) and got a book called "After the shoot" which really helped me set up my workflow. It was for CS4 though - although I expect it's broadly similar?
