Books made from bricks

These "brick books" are created by Melbourne's Daryl Fitzgerald who markets them to booksellers and others as "Book ends, display piece, use them however you like!"

Brick Books

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

Aw, what a tease. :( That’s like the books at Ikea, which look so tempting but they’re in Swedish.

They look like good lawn-art… if the paints stand up to weather.
