Jared,

Here is a book that I use in my Game Developer Track at Columbus State CC.
It focuses on programming games which is a good place to start. And it
covers the basics of Python, including object oriented programming. Don't
let the name fool you ... it does go through some complex programming
designs. Good luck.
