Assembly Language Step-By-Step by Jeff Duntemann
This has always been a good book, but for me, Assembly was always pretty rough. I've known people who took to it immediately, but most I've know are more like me and find it tough to master. I have tried playing around with it on my RPi3, but not very seriously. Still, a good foundational and reference book, so recommended.
I'm not going to go into a lot of details of the plot and writing in this book as you can get the first chapter from the author's website:

Give that a try and see if it drags you into the story. The rest of the novel is of the same caliber. It's fun, fast-paced and (very important) believable.

It's been a long time since I read this book. I remember this being one of my favorite books at university.
