Your English sounds fine to me! Much better than my Mandarin or Cantonese! 
Sorry I can't help with specific books, but you are on the right track with RCJI. I am also a relatively newbie to Jets and have found a wealth of information right here on this site. I know it isn't the same as being able to curl up with a good book and read it at your leisure, but there really is a lot of stuff here.
I randomly search for specific terms I an interested in learning about and then read through those threads. Some of them turn out to be garbage, but then some of the threads have a real wealth of information in them.
Maybe somebody else can help out with book suggestions, but I say keep reading RCJI and also use this site as a resource.
Good luck with getting into jets.

Mikes Jet Book, available through Traplet (look for ads in the RCJI) is a very good overview of model jets. Well worth the price, and allthough it covers mainly ducted fan there are overlapping areas with turbine info and also some strictly turbine info at the back.
Also, Thomas Kamps book, "Radio Control Model Jet Guide" in also available through Traplet and is an excellent book regarding turbine powered RC aircraft.
