Given your background as a programmer, I would recommend starting with SQL exploits. You need to have at least a working knowledge in how programs and script work, and it gives you the framework for understand how to be clever with the existing code logic and how to think outside the box.
If that ends up being too easy or once you get a good handle on that, take a look at metasploit and the exploit database associated with that. Rather than just using the exploits, look at the code and get an idea of how the individual exploits work (which are all the same on the base level: using logic in a creative way the original programmers didn't think of or intend).
As for books, I recommend This One as a primer. It's not exactly up to date, but the theory is sound (giving you a solid foundation on how exploits are made and the thought process behind them).
I really like This One for learning metasploit and getting a further understanding of exploit scripts.
And I just love This Book in general. Once you take a look, you'll see why.
