CCNP Route Foundation Guide is the best book I know of. I have both the study guide and this set and they are well worth it. It goes well in depth on the topics and gives some good examples.

I find this to be a great book.

Implementing Cisco IP Routing (ROUTE) Foundation Learning Guide: Foundation learning for the ROUTE 642-902 Exam

Very in-depth and not padded with "life stories" and such.

I met someone recently who had passed their CCIE written a few years ago but didn't get the lab done in time. He's going back now to do his NP (he skipped the NP before), and he told me that the foundation books go deeper into the technologies than the IE materials did.

The OCG for ROUTE is good. I won't recommend OCG for SWITCH nor TSHOOT though. But i felt prepared enough with the ROUTE book!
Kudos to W.Odom

The Foundation Learning guide is very good, so is the old Cisco Press BSCI book for most of the subjects. I'd give the certification guide a miss, there are quite a few mistakes in it.
