Q:
Where should I start if I want learn HTML5?
Is there such a thing as 'HTML5'? Or is it more correct to say, I need to learn HTML + Javascript + CSS?
I'd like some recommendations on books + Websites
I did a google on 'HTML5 forums'... but didn't find any websites that looked credible
A:
HTML5 is the newer version of HTML, but still is HTML.
Since HTML5, you can add
audio, video and some more tags to your source. But the general tags like DIV, SPAN, A, IMG, etc stay the same.
You want to learn HTML which also contains HTML5 tags. A good place to start (where I started) is W3schools ( http://w3schools.com/ ), just click HTML and on the left side you will find how to make your own html step by step. Where you can also start learning Javascript, CSS and PHP.

Honestly i don't expect there is an e-book. The HTML5 specification is still under development and far from ready. There are tutorials, blogs and lots of articles about it and yes browsers are busy implementing what they can (except IE is falling behind as often, but they'll catch up in IE9). But it's to early to start writing e-books about this subject.
EDIT: take at look at html5tutorial
EDIT2: Site of the Whatwg. This page shows the current working draft of HTML5
