Gary, Mike, and others:

My recommendation would be Rob Tracy's latest book on the LPIC-1 level.  It is up to date as of last year in meeting the criteria, though at times I have to wonder if the editor was paying attention in doing his/her job on the grammar side. ;-)  Comes with a CD that has the book PDF'ed as well as some video lectures as well.

There are some "dated" materials for LPIC-2, but nothing that is recent (and in English) if you search around a bit.

HTH some.  I might have more pending later this quarter on behalf of Linux ETC as well. ;-)
