I guess you say you passed SCJP? Congrats :)
Paul Sanghera's "SCBCD Exam Study Kit: Java Business Component Developer Certification for EJB" is not bad - some people call him boring but I like his style most of the time.
Kathy Sierra's "Head First EJB" is clearing most of the concepts pretty well (in some places better than the exam study kit...) - and if you liked her SCJP book, this one should also work for you. It's officially not a guide but it does help more for the exam than anything else
And you might want to try one of the software guides (although it is more useful after a book if you ask me -- it is for checkup, not for initial study). http://www.whizlabs.com for example are pretty good with the explanations and they have a trial version I believe so you should be able to try them (and even if they do not have for this exam, you can try another one - the packages are very similar)
Good luck with the learning
