The book is not merely a catalog of Star Wars Lego products, though every set to date is included. It does follow along the lines of other Visual Dictionaries, in that it attempts to explain things from the universe it occupies. So this takes the point of view from within the Lego Star Wars universe of sorts. This is best expressed through themed spreads within the book that often explore a character or faction and its evolution across multiple Lego sets.

If you are a fan of Star Wars Lego then this is the Holy Bible.
