Sybex has a very thorough manual to prepare from. Your text choice should be based on your experience level and whether you need a light review or a thorough study guide to prepare.

Download the objectives from Comptia and begin with them. If you need a review, the cram books may be sufficient, but I would recommend at least two texts for most certifications simply because different authors approach content differently.
