There is a book from O'Reilly called Beautiful Code that you might be interested in.

Another one is "Code Complete".

However, most of these aren't written specifically for firmware writes, and thus contain many things that would be fairly cumbersome to apply to firmware.

The difficult thing is figuring out which parts to ignore when writing firmware while still keeping all the parts that make the code "good". ;)
