RC Sproul's "The Holiness of God" is better (I think).

The two can't really be compared. Sproul's book is limited to a single attribute of God whereas Frame is setting forth theology proper so that he covers all of God's attributes from His aseity and immensity to His holiness and omnisapience. Sproul's little book is an excellent classic. Frame's, though, is a systematic treatment of theology proper. His central theme is that God is "Lord of the covenant." While I disagree with Frame on worship, I recommend his book on the Doctrine of God highly.
