Read all the passed threads and you'll see that either of those books are good enough to pass the test. Are you taking this exam as an associate or do you have the required 4-5 yrs experience in any two of the eight domains? Because if you don't have experience, maybe you should go with the Shon Harris books.

I passed today and used only the Sybex Official Study Guide as my only book. I used other sources and types of media for studying but that was the only book.

I would agree with chrisone. My only book source, and I read the thing cover to cover, was the Sybex book. I used the CCCURE site for audio files and the test engine, but that was my only text reference.
