PSS gets "texts for newbies" by the bucketload. However, this is quite different. It has the "newbie hacking basics" presented in a tasteful and useful manner. Later, it goes into "novice/intermediate" tactics that many as piring (though not yet leet) hackers will find usefull. And finally, in sections such as Firewall Penetration experienced hackers will find valuable theroritical and practical tactics and techniques. All in all, Digital Voodoo is a great reference and resource for hacker and security specialist alike.
