Hi,
the absolute classic and must-have-read is the "Dragon Book" by Aho,
Sethi and Ullman:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/
Compilers:_Principles,_Techniques,_and_Tools
It's considered to be comprehensive and a good read. Drawback is that
it's quite old, but in combination with Ter's book you should
probably get a good overview of current compiler techniques.
