5May be the only CEHv7 study guide you need
By Brandon Hutchinson
I passed the CEHv7 certification test through self-study using only this book as a study guide.

Note that I have *a lot* of InfoSec experience--including CISSP and OSCP certifications--but in my opinion, mastery of the material in this book, including the concepts covered in the end-of-chapter questions and ~ 150 sample test questions on the included MasterExam test, *should* allow you to pass the test.

The book is well-written and concise considering the breadth of material the CEHv7 covers.

I recommend this book for anyone pursuing their CEHv7 certification.

5No Narcolepsy Here!
By Corolla
This is, hands down, the most well written IT-related book I've come across. While other books have served as an immediate substitute for Ambien, Matt Walker and company have managed to pull off the tremendous feat of making their subject -- dare I say it? -- FUN. The writing is clear, the examples relevant, and there's a touch of humor to enliven the mundane. I've not taken the exam yet, so I can't speak to the alignment with the content, but I feel confident that no other book could have prepared me as well. I highly recommend this book and will keep an eye out for future works by this author.

5Engaging and accurate: outstanding!
By Miles Erickson
As someone who has studied for (and passed) more than a dozen IT certifications in the past 4 years, I can say one thing with confidence: this is absolutely the best, most engaging certification study guide that I've ever read. It's neither too dry nor too chatty, and the content is organized very well. The text includes plenty of references to outside material for more in-depth study. If you are studying for the CEHv7 exam, this is an outstanding resource and I recommend it highly.
