The LEGO Castle Book: Build Your Own Mini Medieval World Review: Great ideas book - Great idea book! If you like micro builds I recommend getting this book. Review: Really cool book!!! - This is a really cool book that serves as an "incubator" for your creativity, LEGO knowledge and inspiration for "microscope" LEGO castle builds. The author does state that you should be creative and basically improvise when/where you don't have the bricks necessary for the six builds. Unless your collection is rather vast, I'm willing to bet most people won't have all the pieces necessary to complete models as indicated. Having said that... I was really impressed with the quality, knowledge imparted and how the author "shines a light" on creating castles with LEGO in a microscale format! Another review gripes that there seemed to be a step or two missing... cry me a river!! Even if that may be the case, most people who are seriously going to create these models are going to be insightful enough that they can easily overcome these (very rare) instances and successfully re-create what is detailed within the pages. It's not as though this book comes with all the pieces necessary for these models to be completed, many readers/builders will find it necessary to source the pieces via BrickLink to build these mini-castles. I was inspired and was fairly successful in re-creating the "Lands End Model". I found it necessary to use the darker Azure blue as opposed to the light/moderate blue suggested in the book. While the authors use of the alternative blue would have been desirable, I made "due" with what I had and was happy with the result. After that, I decided to give it a go on my own and created a rather "fantastical/mystical" castle of my very own. Again, my parts limitations dictated the use of dark bluish-gray for the cliffs/land-base and light bluish-gray/gold for the actual castle. While I was pleased with the result, I lack many of the bricks/colors/specialty pieces to really construct it as I would like... but again, was inspired by the author/book!!!! So, in conclusion... if you are looking for inspiration and instructions on how to build in microscale to build castles, I highly recommend this book. It really is gorgeous, informative and a nice followup to Mr. Friesen's LEGO MICRO CITIES. I've got a lengthy shopping list now to pursue on BrickLink so I can build more Micro-castles. The book is definitely geared more towards LEGO builders knowledgable about LEGO parts and will most probably require acquisition of pieces that are not currently in most peoples collections. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #185,704 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #24 in Miniatures #40 in Model Building #1,651 in Engineering (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (277) | | Dimensions | 9.37 x 0.71 x 9.37 inches | | Edition | Illustrated | | ISBN-10 | 1718500165 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1718500167 | | Item Weight | 1.96 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 208 pages | | Publication date | August 27, 2019 | | Publisher | No Starch Press | | Reading age | 10 years and up | ## Images ![The LEGO Castle Book: Build Your Own Mini Medieval World - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71CWD3sdtLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great ideas book *by R***M on March 19, 2026* Great idea book!
