TL;DR Summary
Searching for some good bibliography about the Kerr metric, especially interested in timelike geodesics.
Hi all:
As stated in the summary I'm in need for bibliography about timelike geodesics in the Kerr metric.
I have tried using the "Mathematical Theory of Black Holes" by S. Chandrasekhar but I find it a bit to complex.
Is there any other good books or articles about this that you might know?
Thanks in advance!

Funny you should ask this question because literally earlier today I was having a look around the library and picked out this one:

https://homepages.ecs.vuw.ac.nz/~visser/book4.shtml

It’s a collection of articles about different aspects of the Kerr geometry. I’ve only looked at chapters 1, 2 and 13 so far but I already feel more familiar with performing calculations in this geometry (and there’s fairly exhaustive reference material for each coordinate form of the metric which is nice to have on hand).
