Have you tried Michio Kaku's or Brian Greene's books? In my experience 
they are both wonderfully accessible writers with very firm grasps in 
the details of quantum and string/M theories. I've certainly enjoyed 
what I've read from both writers. (They are also both humble, working 
theoreticians.)
