Developing games and apps in Java?

I know Java pretty well. I'm still in the process of learning it but I know enough to write apps. My problem is, I don't know how to program games. I'm interested in developing games as a career and I'd like to start with developing something in Java for android phones but the classes and packaged you use for game development are not included in the book I have for the general use of Java. I was wondering if anyone knows a good book or website to use to learn the finer stuff of using Java to develop games?

developing games using unity or unreal engine is easy enough to learn and the software is free the problem is that java is not supported in unity. not sure about unreal though. unity uses c# and javascript. there are TONS of great tutorials on programming with these tools to get you started. I know it's not java but hope that helps.
