New Adult Book Covers

Postby Nobby » Wednesday 31 March 2004 11:21:48am

I don't know if you know but new Harry Potter book covers will be coming out June or July, as an attempt by Bloomsbury to try and get more adults to read the books. Just like the Ootp book cover! If you wanna see them click on the link below:

i imagined azkaban differently and never knew about the massive tower in the middle. The chamber of secrets one is good but the original is better. the goblet of fire one looks as if it is the remake of the round table or sutton :lol:
