Read the real history....
...but also read Neal Stephenson's wonderful wonderful novel "The Cryptonomicon", which is fiction, but has some real people in, including Turing. I won't say any more - don't want to spoil it. It will blow you away.

If you're into computer-related sci-fi,
Vernor Vinge has also written a novel called A Fire Upon The Deep, which is also mind-bogglingly good.

read the Cryptonomicon ASAP!!!
I can't recommend it highly enough. Gripping, ambitious, wide-ranging, action-packed, but all about big big ideas. Fucking awesome.

Seconded!
It's a great book.

Another interesting novel with Turing in it is Enigma by Robert Harris. It's set in Bletchley Park at the height of the U-boat war.
