University level latin books
Can anyone recommend me any books of this type e.g. books containing translation exercises etc.?
There are loads out there- I started Latin at uni last year and we used Moreland and Fleischer which is brilliant- but what it says on the tin- very intensive. The problem is it's not that brilliant for self study becuase although the exercises and brilliant and it's very thorough there aren't any answers so you can'tcheck if you're getting it wrong. It does depend what level you are at (or indeed what you need to get to) and weather you are teaching yourself or have access to help!
Wheelock's Latin, perhaps, followed by Wheelock's Latin Reader. The former introduces grammatical topics, with short translation exercises; the latter provides you with selections from Latin literature (extracts from Cicero, Ovid, Pliny, the Vulgate, Bede, et al.) to translate, with vocabulary at the back.
