I cannot recommend anything concrete, all authors are selling either ideas that do not work anymore or just selling the dream...

No one will publish a working trading strategy and even someone crazy enough to do it, it will be arbitraged pretty quickly...

The best way is to buy stock market data and start testing ideas until you find your edge...

All that said, here are the books I usually recommend, more for motivation and inspiration:

The Asian Saga by James Clavell, reading as a kid on how to rule your life, business and create a dynasty...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Asian_Saga

More Money Than God: Hedge Funds and the Making of a New Elite by Sebastian Mallaby - on how to rule the world :-)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/More_Money_Than_God

A Man For All Markets by Edward O. Thorp - basically the father of quant/systematic trading and one of the greatest minds of our time...
