If you want to learn game programming, learn C first. I would reccomend reading an easy C book (like C for dummies 1 and 2) and then possibly getting a C++ book (C++ for dummies is decent, but I wasnt as impressed as C for dummies)
I tried to jump right into advanced programming too quickly and I did not learn a thing. I got lost so quickly.
As for the dummies books, don't let the titles fool you! They are not overly made stupid, but they are easy to read and easy to understand. (I am a CompSci student, and I have a C++ book that costs twice as much but teaches so much less it seems)

The two will hover, spinning inches above the ground. With a giant buttered cat array, a high-speed monorail could easily link New York with Chicago.
