About a month ago I read this book. The book had a very interesting theory about dinosaurs and the action was fast paced and exciting. I really like Douglas Preston’s work and originally bought this book as a throw away book to read on a flight because I had already finished the book I had wanted to read. Well, I found through reading this book that Douglas Preston has a new fan in me. He has written quite a few books and many with another author whose name escapes me at the moment, but anyway (his name is Lincoln Child). I was in Barnes and Noble yesterday and saw another Douglas Preston book called The Codex. And I flipped it over and read the back and I guess it is a book with some of the same characters from Tyrannosaur Canyon. Well I now must read this book.
The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...
