An excellent book, Rising Sun, Falling Skies: The Disastrous Java Sea Campaign of World War II,
by Jeffrey Cox has recently been published.

This comprehensive book consists of short sections on the major and minor engagements of the Java Sea campaign. The chapter notes and bibliography sections are very thorough.

Same author wrote this online piece about Java Sea: http://www.militaryhistoryonline.com/wwii/articles/endofbattleofjavasea.aspx#

I found it very interesting, he gives the Paschall and Tully treatment to Java Sea. The article covers the Java Sea, the book covers the entire NEI campaign and looks very good.
