Here is a list of books that are more comprehensive books that can give you a bird's-eye-view on apologetics.
Applegate & Stump, eds., How I Changed My Mind About Evolution
Bahnsen, Always Ready
Brooks, Rice, God’s Not Dead
Copan & Lane, Come Let Us Reason
Craig, William Lane, Reasonable Faith: Christian Truth and Apologetics
Geisler & Brooks, When Skeptics Ask
Geisler & Hoffman, Why I Am a Christian
Keller, Timothy, The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism
Kreeft & Tacelli, Handbook of Christian Apologetics
Lewis, C.S., Mere Christianity
McDowell, Josh, Evidence That Demands Verdict
Metaxas, Eric, Socrates in the City
Plantinga, Jr., Cornelius, A Sure Thing: What We Believe in and Why
I won't comment on every single book here, but I promise to do more specific book reviews in future posts. For now, if you are a "newbie," I suggest starting out with Rice Brooks' God's Not Dead, Tim Keller's The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism, and Kreeft & Tacelli's Handbook of Christian Apologetics. Copan and Lane's Come Let Us Reason is also a good collection of articles written by various thinkers and scholars. That might be the next book which can guide you to specific authors on specific subjects. For example, if you're interested in finding answers to God's alleged "immoral" and "destructive" behavior/commands in the OT, you'll find Copan's and Foreman's research/findings very satisfying.
You don't have to read every line, every section, and every chapter, but these "foundational" books will provide good summaries on the field of apologetics. Hope this is helpful in getting you started.
