There is a new Sybex ISC2 endorsed study guide coming out a few days ago. Initial reviews on Amazon seem good. You may wish to take that into consideration as well. -

Read the recent pass threads. You will find what you are looking for there. Or read one of the other 100 threads that ask this exact same question.

I purchased the new Sybex guide. I am only into the second chapter, but here are my thoughts:
- Topic discussion begins at an entry level so there is no assumption of previous knowledge.
- Concepts tend to be repeated a few times which you can view as wordy or helpful to better understand the material.
- Very large book - just under 1000 pages.
- Too many separate chapters (21)
- Some new material compared to the Eric Conrad Study Guide (which I prefer thus far). -
