Well... personally... I found it quite difficult to get started with Lua as well... due perhaps to the language intrinsic amorphism...

Your best bet is to order Roberto's book as it brings some sense and purpose to the language:

http://www.inf.puc-rio.br/~roberto/book/

The manual itself is much less useful, but has the merit of existing in the first place:

http://www.lua.org/manual/5.0/

The wiki has some handy resources as well:

http://lua-users.org/wiki/SampleCode
http://lua-users.org/wiki/PersistentTables
http://lua-users.org/wiki/StandardLibraries

That said, the wiki is pretty much opaque at first glance, as there is no search function to start with... very frustrating :/

Cheers
