The author wrote that this book “…gives you tools to explore—it's up to you to provide the rest. Creating something new and seeing it work the way you intended it to is far more rewarding than building even the coolest LEGO set ever released. Enjoy creating." In that regard, The Unofficial LEGO® Technic Builder's Guide is a huge success. It inspires the builder and explains why things work. It is a compilation that can save you months (if not years) of trial-and-error work. It shares not only Paul Kmieć's experience, but also that of Eric “Blakbird" Albrecht, Philippe “Philo" Hurbain, and several other prominent creators. I highly recommend this valuable reference to anybody (whether a beginner or advanced builder) wanting to enhance their LEGO Technic understanding. It should be the primary reference in every LEGO Technic fan's library!

It's a good book, a very good book, and it's one which I think most Technic builders (and many non-Technic ones too!) would find useful. But, I did find the omissions disappointing. Perhaps I expected too much, but I do think that as a “Technic Builder's Guide" it's not complete. If this was called “The Unofficial LEGO Guide to building Technic Vehicles" then it would be a perfect book in my mind, but as it is it leaves me wanting more.

Overall, I would recommend this book for any adult builder who is interested in becoming more familiar with Technic and using Technic in their own creations. The book is well-laid out and the information is presented clearly. It is definitely an asset that deserves a place on the shelf.
