Well, the Cambridge History of China is a great resource, but I don't know if you can find that in eBook form or not. Those tomes cover just about everything you'd need.
If you're interested in modern Chinese history, The Search for Modern China is an excellent book.
For the Song dynasty: The Age of Confucian Rule, and Daily Life in China on the Eve of the Mongol Invasion. Just remember that the books can't cover everything, so occasionally they oversimply - particularly Kuhn's book and its overemphasis on Confucianism.
Oh, and one more recommendation for now: the Shi Ji (Records of the Grand Historian).
Not directly about the Mongols, but an interesting book is Daily Life in China on the Eve of the Mongol Invasion by Jacques Gernet. It's primarily about the Southern Sung and their capital Hangchow. In the period covered in the book, the North had already fallen to the Mongols, but life was still placid in the South.
