Sklanskys book for tournament poker is good. Also a tournament book by TJ and McEvoy. If you are playing the stars tournies, its just best to sit tight for the first 30 minutes and on the 3rd level you can pick up chips with solid hands. Its not just about playing the best hand, but outplaying your opponent with position (position raises and blind stealing are key). Just remember to peg down the calling startion so that you don't have to lose any more than you have to. The good/solid players will most likely fold to a bluff.
