CISSP Preperation - Books

Hi,

I have 12 years experience in Application Deployment, Support, programming and have worked with our security officer in making our company ISO 27001 certified. I don't have direct experience with routers, firewalls or load balancers but I know how they work and I have worked with IT teams to configuration the applications I deploy.

I have started listening podcasts for CISSP exam to get in to mood and learning seriously. I am looking for books recommendation. I searched this forum and other areas on the internet. The "recommended books" threads are old. Currently, this is what I get:

1. ICS2 recommended book or Shaun Harris's book - Both are said to contain information more than you need.
2. 11th hour - Recommended as a exam specific read but not good enough as a solo book.

What have you used successfully to prepare for the exam?

I appreciate your time.

Regards,
RM

See my posting showing study materials I used. I started studying in Oct 2016 with current materials shown in my thread. I spent about $200 total on study materials. I have many years of network, information security & sysadmin experience.
