I have read some elementary number theory from David Burton's text and I know groups and rings from Herstein's book Topics in Algebra and some field theory from different sources online. I am currently learning commutative algebra from Atiyah and Macdonald's engaging book on commutative algebra.

I would really like to learn some algebraic number theory and I was wondering if someone could provide me a sequence of books/ steps so that I can understand enough number theory to be a strong graduate student about to begin research. I apologize sincerely if my question is off-topic here or partly vague.
