The Frankenjura is in the unusual situation of having three more or less up to date definitive guidebooks:
Schwertner 1 & 2
Thum
Röker 1 & 2
They're all good, and like anything else in climbing/humanity/life, people tend to have tribal loyalties to one or the other of them. Schwertner seems to be the most widely read; I go for a slightly contrarian look by preferring Röker.
If you can't read German (well) then Röker is your best option because it has bilingual text. Schwertner also has a pleasantly cheap English language selected climbs version, but as the title suggests it's aimed above your grade range.
