Trust me, Prolog is still being used — just not as extensively as some of the most commonly used languages in our industry, and there is a very good reason for that.
Whether you are motivated by aesthetic, academic, or career considerations, you have a reason to learn Prolog in 2021.

This book is well-written, should be easy to read for beginners. It's available in printed form and also as a free online version. It is also relatively new (from 2003), which is not the case with many Prolog books out there.
Once upon a time when I used Prolog I liked the book by Sterling & Shapiro, The Art of Prolog.
For advanced Prolog programming, especially w.r.t. efficiency, I recommend the Craft of Prolog by O'Keefe.
Here's one book you may find useful: Prolog Programming for Artificial Intelligence by Ivan Bratko.
The first part is about Prolog, the second about AI algorithms and how to implement them in Prolog.
