Dialogue (Elements Of Fiction Writing) by Lewis Turco is an older book from Writer's Digest Press (F+W Publications) but it is really good.

I honestly read it in a day (it's not too long) and it provides a lot of good detail about getting character voices right and keeping them consistent.

Our understanding of a character in a novel often comes almost entirely from the things they say and this book does a good job of helping you learn how to set that up.
