I am a Microsoft person who purchased an M1 iPad Pro and have no clue how to use it other than the basic tutorials on YouTube.
Is there a good book or resource for someone with intermediate skills to learn how to do things like navigate the iPad Pro file structure or be able to copy files (like CBZ or MKV) to the iPad?
iPad Pro 12.9-inch Wi-Fi, Cellular
Well, you need to know that NO iPad, even an iPad Pro is NO full laptop/desktop computer replacement.
There will be plenty of things you cannot do OR DO easily that any laptop/desktop can very easily do.
While there is a Files app, for accessing actual created files on a particular app, Apple DOES NOT allow ANY user access to ANY of the iOS/iPadOS file structure system, unlike with any full laptop/desktop computer.
Apple even makes it much harder now to access the file system structure in its newest of macOS versions!
With that all stated and out of the way, Apple has a Apple books iPad users guide that you can download and read for reference.
iPad Users Guide for iPadOS 14.7 found here.

Based on Personal Experience:
A great author to read is David Pogue. In 2010, I started with his macOS 10.6 Snow Leopard book of his "the missing manual" series, and have read every edition that is released since Snow Leopard. An excellent author. You'll find his books on Amazon, and likely at your local Book Store. The one you need: iPad: The Missing Manual, 7th Edition - O'Reilly
Thank you very much. I have the iPad Users Guide for iPadOS 14.7 and have been watching the videos. They tend to be geared more for the entry-level than intermediate level, but, at this point, everything helps.
So...thank you very much! It is very much appreciated!
The book is now purchased and I'll have it by Thursday!
Thank you so very much! This is exactly the advise I needed! There were many books out there, but a lot of them were either geared toward entry-level, were rated at only one star or both. It helps to figure out one that will truly help me out.
Thank you again!
The guide is THE SAME guide I supplied a direct link to.
If you tap on the link I supplied it will bring you to a location where it will launch your iPad into the iOS Apple Books app where you can fully download the guide into the iOS Apple Books app on your iPad.
It may already be ib the iOS Apple Books app.

You are most welcome.
The Book Series:
You are welcome. I've learned a lot from the author David Pogue, and I'm certain you will too. I feed confident in my Apple device troubleshooting and usage, and I give David Pogue a lot of credit, on my own will for helping many out there.
I downloaded this book onto my iPad. Now all I need to do is figure out where to find it on my iPad! :-)
Thanks for the help!
