This is rather good book, but not for the latest version:

Main principles will still apply though and I liked it.

I purchased the same book and

That one looks pretty sketchy. Only 120 pages and it's self-published. The description mentions it covers "Configure Cisco Firepower Thread Defence" (sic).

A much better (and peer-reviewed) book published not too long ago is @Nazmul Rajib 's "Cisco Firepower Threat Defense".

It costs more but you get what you pay for. 🙂
