I think James has nailed some of the best titles to start you off. One of the best series around is The Night Sky Observers Guide. Plenty of bright stuff listed to start you off with, and numerous faint targets for big telescopes for later on. Start off with volume 3 which is purely the southern sky. Later you can get vols 1 and 2.

Where in the Riverland are you? I grew up in Renmark and started observing there back in my school days. Still remember how dark and transparent the sky was.
