Read Touching the Void and watched the movie and have done a bit of climbing myself, but what a truly scary mountain the Eiger is!

I've just read The Beckoning Silence in which he writes a lot about the Eiger. It's a good read and has a bibliography with lots of recommendations for other books on the subject.
