A quite informative analysis of Saudi royal politics (hat tip: Econbrowser).
Update: Amusingly, there is some controversy about birthdates. According to the post linked to above, Abdullah was born in 1921, Sultan in 1928, Nayef in 1934. According to this WSJ piece, the Saudi royals routinely lie about their ages, and it's actually Abullah - 1923, Sultan - 1924, and Nayef - 1933.
