An accessible quick introduction. This abstract links to a 19-page pdf:

From Cbits to Qbits: Teaching computer scientists quantum mechanics N. David Mermin

https://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0207118

After that, the textbook by Nielsen and Chuang, Quantum Computation and Quantum Information. It's a big book but the first couple of chapters, 60 pages or so, are self-contained and make a good introduction.



I just read that paper for a second time and now I understand QC is magic.
