For all my fellow Harry Potter fans, Leaky Cauldron has a sneak peak of the cover art for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows here. UK fans are probably going to be most interested in the UK cover :-) Looks pretty good and makes me even more impatient to get the book into my grubby little hands ( Read more... )

I prefer the UK versions over the US for a lot of books :-) It depends on the illustrator, but sometimes the US covers don't have the kind of subtlty and detail of the UK ones. I can still remember my horror at seeing the US cover of David Eddings' Queen of Sorcery. How could they do that to Polgara?

Harry Potter definitely gets the better cover in this case :-) And possibly the most intriguing...

I'm never entirely happy about this 'Adult' cover version thingy. I've seen it on a couple of other book series and it makes me uncomfortable that people don't want to be seen with something that looks like a children's book (worse yet - don't want to be seen with Terry Pratchett's fabulous comical covers). It's just a personal thing, though, and I suspect that a lot of people have good reasons for using the adult covers.

Well, in Equuus, of course :-p

*snicker* It's not *that* kind of Adult. Much as many fans wish it were ;-)
