Good question. I imagine my smart followers will have more suggestions, so please add them!

From me, a couple things come to mind: Massumi’s User Guide to Capitalism and Schizophrenia; the work of John Protevi (especially Political Physics, but also Political Affect; haven’t read his new book, Life, War, Earth: Deleuze and the Sciences)  - none of his books are necessarily overviews of D/D&G, but in the course of his work one learns A LOT about D/D&G; Elizabeth Grosz in Volatile Bodies and some of her other work - again, not ‘about’ D/D&G but doing that kind of work; same with Braidotti in Metamorphoses. I haven’t read Deleuze and Geophilosophy: A Guide and Glossary (Bonta and Protevi), but I know other people that like it. Spivak has an important critique of Deleuze in “Can the Subaltern Speak?”

Nick Tampio has a book coming out this year on D/D&G’s political philosophy that I think will be very, very good. 

One of the go-tos for supplementary texts is Hallward’s Out of This World: Deleuze and the Philosophy of Creation; but Deleuzeans think Hallward misses a LOT of what D is doing (see for example Protevi’s review of the book). Badiou has a book on Deleuze that Deleuzeans don’t like. 

This Oxford UP page on Deleuze has a collection of other books - I don’t know the ones that aren’t mentioned above; I’m not sure if the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy or Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy pages on D are any good, but they’ll have other secondary literature, and the SEP one is co-written by Protevi, so I imagine it’s good.
