I've not read any of this guys books, but liked this quote from him:

Lawrence Miles:

"I wanted to take time out and work on something a bit more long-term, but
the Lego people have brought out some fantastic new stuff in the last year
and there was just no way I could afford any of the big sets without writing
another book."

Well, let's see ... trains? Harry Potter? The toy that dares not say its
name, Bionicle? RCX 2? It would be interesting to know which sets interest a
person with such creative imagination.
