I keep running into learn you some erlang[1] which seems to be a good online resource. The author of which also wrote the "Erlang in Anger"[2] book.
Then there is the BEAM book[3] which provides an deep dive into Erlang and the BEAM virtual machine.
I'm not the best person to ask since I'm only starting out on Erlang! I much prefer to code visually :)

Thanks for the suggestions! I looked at "learn you some erlang" and I like the style and humor of it.
