Good books for MCSA server 2012?

Hi. I just want your opinions on my current book choices to begin studying for this cert. Bear in mind i'm pretty much completely new to windows server. I only had a play around with it on AWS, messed around with adding services and setting up dhcp, ect. Also new to powershell so I figured I'd grab the book everyone recommends for it. Here's my picks:

-MCSA Windows Server 2012 R2 Complete Study Guide: Exams 70-410, 70-411, 70-412, William Panek
-Powershell in a month of lunchs

What do you think? Also what other reading materials, aside from technet (Which I will get to after the books), would you recommend? Thanks.
