I seem to remember Warren recommended it (Hacking

Still wading through it.

Is HLE a good book? I don't think I saw it at
Borders.

Yes, it's a pretty good book. It has a lot of specifics (if that's what you
want) but also covers some of the basics. The ratings system is largely
worthless, but that's probably only there because all of the Hacking Exposed
series has them.
The case studies in the back give pretty interesting insight as to how hard a
determined attacker may work to gain access to a system, and what means they may
used (combined with the ones mentioned in the rest of the book).
Especially see p. 486 :)
