The cover artwork of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is out! ooooooo...aaaaaaaaa am so excited! In the American edition, the cover has a grown-up-looking Harry, against the backdrop of an orange-gold sky. In the artwork by Mary Grandpre, who illustrated all the six previous US editions, Harry is looking up at something in the sky. In the British edition, it shows Harry, Hermione and Ron leaping out of a treasure-filled circle, fear written large on their faces. But, that dear Potter fan, is the kids' edition. This cover is by Jason Cockroft, who illustrated Half-Blood Prince and Order of the Phoenix. The adult British edition has a locket with intricate carvings. Whispers in cyberspace say it could be Slytherin's locket. So go ahead, and let your theories flow! By the way, whispers in cyberspace also indicate that Harry having his mother's eyes will be an important plot point. Wait and see. IP: Logged |

I find it so surprising the differences in the covers with each passing book. I personally love the American versions, the way they are drawn is just so appealing to me. I've only seen a few of the other editions for each book, but the treasure in this one does surprise me. And yes, the rumor about the eyes has been prevalent for some time now, though those ignorant movie producers refuse to edit Harry's eyes in a single movie. IP: Logged |
