K. Rowling's fifth Harry Potter adventure, brilliantly evoked in full colour by Kate Greenaway Medal winner Jim Kay, and acclaimed guest artist Neil Packer. This new full-colour gift book sees the Kate Greenaway medal winner being joined by guest artist Neil Packer, winner of the BolognaRagazzi Award 2021. No release date has been announced for the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince illustrated edition, however, it’s safe to assume that it will be two years from the release of OOTP, meaning Half-Blood Prince should be released in the fall of 2023.

Neil Packer added: ‘As both a friend and a colleague it was an honour to be asked to work alongside Jim Kay on this book.

Bloomsbury and Scholastic have announced that the much anticipated illustrated version of Harry Potter’s fifth adventure is set to be published on 11th October.

With Half-Blood Prince and Deathly Hallows only slightly shorter than Phoenix, we assume that the remaining two Illustrated Editions will be published in Fall 2023 and Fall 2025 respectively. The Quidditch Through the Ages Illustrated Edition will arrive October 2020 — that’s the year in between GOF and OOTP. Now an exciting new collaboration brings together two virtuoso artistic talents, as Kate Greenaway Medal winner Jim Kay is joined by acclaimed guest illustrator Neil Packer, winner of the 2021 BolognaRagazzi Award for non-fiction. I can't wait for the sixth book to be released and once more I applaud the imagination and talent of jk Rowling and the illustrator because their work is superb and sublime. I have been struggling with mental health illness for some time, and it would be wrong to try and continue when I can no longer give the fans and the series the full commitment and energy it deserves.I'm not going to review the story, as I hope everyone has already read it or is at least familiar with it from the films. He shared a draft of Kreacher, the Black Family House Elf, as well as what a harness will look like for the Thestrals. Die hervorragende Qualität des Buches, von den Illustrationen bis zur Druckqualität, macht es zu einem wahren Schatz für Fans der Serie. When Bloomsbury Children’s Books published the first Illustrated Edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone in 2015, readers were instantly mesmerised by Kay’s magical and rich evocation of the Boy Who Lived. Judging by the fact that it says “Year 1” on its spine, it’s possible that MinaLima intends to illustrate the entire series.

Each day features a favourite anniversary or meaningful memory from the Harry Potter novels (366 in fact – including one extra for the leap year) all delicately illustrated with scenic artwork along the way. With its oversized format, high-quality paper, ribbon bookmark, and color on nearly every page, this edition is the perfect gift for Harry Potter fans and book lovers of all ages. Despite this (or perhaps because of it), he finds depth and strength in his friends, beyond what even he knew; boundless loyalty; and unbearable sacrifice.The end-of-year release timetable for each of the Illustrated Editions published thus far has made it the perfect holiday gift. The sixth book in the Harry Potter series is one of the most pivotal, and sets up the final installment of J. And as if we weren’t spoiled enough, there’s another Illustrated Edition in the works: MinaLima, the graphic artists behind the Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts movies, will release an illustrated edition of Book 1 this October. I am extremely lucky to have been involved in a franchise that has meant so much to so many people across the world. Each Harry Potter Illustrated Edition represents a huge and unique creative endeavour to bring to life the magic of J.

Bloomsbury will now explore exciting new directions in illustration to complete publishing all seven Illustrated editions. Breathtaking scenes, iconic locations and unforgettable characters await inside – Luna Lovegood, Professor Umbridge, Grawp the giant, and many more – as Harry Potter and Dumbledore's Army prepare for the coming battle against Lord Voldemort. Die Zusammenführung der literarischen Genialität mit visueller Pracht macht diese Ausgabe zu einem Sammlerstück, das auf den Regalen von Fans einen besonderen Platz verdient.

We will miss collaborating with Jim enormously, but he will always have a very special place in our Harry Potter family of unparalleled illustration talent. Her latest children’s novel The Christmas Pig, a standalone adventure story about a boy’s love for his most treasured thing and how far he will go to find it, is out now. Neil Packer adds: ‘As both a friend and a colleague it was an honour to be asked to work alongside Jim Kay on this book. As the project unfolded, Jim decided that it was time to bring in guest collaborator and dear friend, Neil Packer, to help bring the story to life. We feel so grateful and privileged to have enjoyed Jim’s vision of the wizarding world, and recognise the staggering amount of dedication and work it represents.
