Ok, it is more about my personal project. It seems that nowadays it is quite difficult for me to find some time to fulfill one of my passion which is reading. The only spare time that I have is when commuting from my home to the office. Perhaps during the lunch hour as well. But once I get home, I have my hands full with the kids..and wifey as well. So as I do feel that my brain development is getting slower these days, I need to find some good books that I could read which hopefully will enhance my knowledge especially in my field of work. Yesterday I decided to go to Kinokuniya KLCC to look for this book that received 5 stars review from Mr.Bejtlich.

Unfortunately I could not find this book at KinoKuniya and yeah, feel lil bit disappointed. My friend geek00l suggested that I buy the book through Amazon.com. It is a good idea but I have some problem with this thing called “patience” ;)

Anyway during the search and buy operation at that bookstore, I came across with this book authored by Ed Skoudis and Lenny Zeltser titled Malware – Fighting Malicious code. Okay it is a lil bit dated (2004) but I think it wont do any harm to my knowledge as well ;)

With the lil help from wifey (with some promises as well), I bought that book and start reading it during my journey to my office today. So far the topics are interesting and the presentation of its content is as what I’ve expected from Ed. Knowledgable and fun. The price? RM 161.00.

So I have these two books that I want to buy. If you come across any of these books, would you mind provide me some information on which bookstore that has it and how much does it cost? I am more than grateful to get those info. :)

CounterHack Reloaded

Malware Forensics: Investigating and Analyzing malicious code

I think these 2 books should be enuff to keep me occupied during the commuting time until the end of year. :)
