Well, I did read Beyond Fear and wasn't that impressed, although 
Schneier does seem to know what he is talking about the writing style 
reminded me of someone reading lots of lists.  Also if you read 
Schneier's Cryptogram (http://www.schneier.com/crypto-gram.html) or blog 
(http://www.schneier.com/blog/) there is probably little new discussion 
in the book to keep you interested.  I do read the Cryptogram and it is 
very good, and I can't comment on any of his other books as I haven't 
read them.

Will.
