In desperation to learn the language of the Gutons any suggestions?

Hails!

I think you should simply read the original texts with a grammar and dictionary as reference. Once you read through a section several times it will start to make sense. Ultimately, Gothic will simply seem like an extension of your own Icelandic language.

Incidentally, I would be interested in your motivation to add "Herul" to your name. 

Freis jah sunjis!

It does have a lot of jargon in there, but to get the basics and more intermediate aspects of the language, you only need that book. Afterwards, there are many, many websites out there that are good references and can clear up some confusion that Wright's book might cause you.
