I have an interest in Vercingetorix and his leadership of the Germanic tribes against Julius Caesar. If you don’t mind historical fiction, The Druid King by Norman Spinrad has some pretty good info from the Germanic rather than Roman perspective

Vercingetorix is a Gaul (Celt) of the Avernian tribe.
Great warrior king is the meaning of his name. Many good books on him and the Gauls out there. The Gauls come from the line of Gomer and were every where from Turkey to northern Africa to Britain.
I have the new book on the Franks coming soon from amazon called Conquerors of the Roman Empire: The Franks.
Books on the German tribes are harder to come by in English, in German there are a number of them out there, including back to the times when the German tribes where on the steps of Russia.
