best book on the fall of roman britain & the initial acts of the sucessor states is without doubt - John Morris, Age of Arthur; History of the British Isles 350-650CE
it's prolly be cheaper at Amazon than:

but that ends before the fun internecine fighting & the Viking's invasion so ...

You could try:

Barbarians and Romans: The Techniques of Accommodation by W. Goffart

The Fall of the Roman Empire: The Military Explanation by A. Ferrill

The Later Roman Empire, 284-602 by A.H.M. Jones

Though not specifically about the Germanic 'peoples', they are scholarly works about the period in question that have to address their impact on the Roman Empire.
