    The Dorling Kindersley books The LEGO Ideas Book and the Star Wars Character Encyclopedia are now shipping from Amazon.co.uk. I don't have either yet but when I do I'll review them here. In addition, Brendan Powell Smith's new LEGO bible book is out as well, a couple of months early.

My ideas book arrived 2 days ago, and it's very very good, so I just ordered another one as a present. recommend it.

I saw a book set today in Walmart. It has a mini-version of 2 DK star wars sticker books, and abridged version of the visual dictionary, and the mini-scale X-Wing, all for about $12

The Ideas book is great... it doesn't have the instructions like the old LEGO Idea Book 6000, but there are multiple angle shots of the models so you can get a good idea of how they are built.

Don't forget Sean Kenney's new book - Cool City. It just came out as well.

I'm putting the idea's book away for Christmas. I want to have some lego items that give me that excitment that I had a child, and I think books crossed with lego will do that (plus the winter bakery and post office of course!)

The cult of lego is also out soon. It's on pre-order here for much cheaper than amazon:
