What books would you recommend, especially about Sobieski?

And I agree that this was the beginning of the end for the Ottomans.

I haven’t actually read anything on just Sobieski. A very good overview of the Ottomans that more or less starts with Vienna is:

A better read and more comprehensive history is:
