Tomb Raider Tech Manual

by Michael Jan Friedman

Lara Croft is a tomb raider -- a smart, sexy adventurer who gets her kicks unearthing the mysteries of the ancients. Bryce is the rumpled techno-wizard who keeps her in cutting-edge equipment. Nowhere is the nature of their relationship more evident than in the affectionate bickering the two engage in as Bryce cobbles together the "toys" Lara will need to survive her greatest adventure. Here is your chance to dig behind the scenes of Tomb Raider, the globe-spanning Paramount Pictures summer blockbuster starring Angelina Jolie. See how Lara Croft came by her devastating array of gear, gadgets and gravel-spitting vehicles.

Fun book. The dialogue between Bryce and Lara is a little OOC at times, but I appreciate the more detailed look at all her equipment from the first film.

Well written – a lot like the banter in the movie.
