About this deal

That is why making a book like this is a true collaboration, there is a surprisingly small team at Bloomsbury who put the illustrated edition together and their roles are equally important as mine and Jim’s. That they got this enormous book to work, to be coherent and look beautiful is a small miracle. Harry and the Weasleys, along with Mad-Eye and Tonks, go to visit Mr Weasley at St Mungo's, who is required to take a Blood-Replenishing Potion at regular intervals. He shares the ward with a man who had been bitten by a werewolf and a woman with a massive chunk out of her leg who refused to tell the Healers what had bitten her, arousing suspicions she had been handling something illegal. While the kids are outside the ward, they overhear Mad-Eye on the Extendable Ears suspecting that Harry could be possessed by Voldemort.

Once the trio mentions Umbridge's classes only allow defensive theory and textbook reading, Sirius explains based on their information, Fudge does not want them trained in combat. Fudge believes Dumbledore intends to use the Defence Against the Dark Arts class to raise the students as an army to take on the Ministry, and wants to prevent this possibility with the new curriculum. Sirius knows that with Fudge's growing paranoia, it is only a matter of time before he finds an excuse to arrest Dumbledore. Sirius then asks Harry not to worry about Hagrid. Sirius reveals while Olympe Maxime mentioned in her message they got separated on the way home, he knows Hagrid's tough and asks Harry not to raise too many questions about Hagrid, or they will attract the Ministry's attention. When Sirius suggests about meeting them in disguise at their next Hogsmeade trip, Harry advises him not to, given the Daily Prophet article and that Draco might recognise him if Sirius were to show up. Sirius then leaves, but mentions he will send a letter when he feels it is safe to communicate by the Floo Network again. Yes absolutely. You always worry about how people are going to react to your work but even more so for this book given what it is and the love and respect in which both the story and Jim is held by the fans. The class progresses at a fair rate, practising the Impediment Jinx, the Reductor Curse, and the Stunning Spell. For the safety of the group, Hermione bewitches some coins with a Protean Charm, one for each member of the D.A. When activated by Harry, the numbers on each coin change to inform the bearer of the time and date of the next meeting. Apparently, there was a lot that Kay was prohibited from illustrating likely due to the size of the book or because of the darker material. However, in the end, Kay confirmed that he was more comfortable with the darker themes, which means that the illustrations we will get to see should be incredible. How would you define your style, your approach for this book? What techniques did you use? Your references and sources of inspiration?

Early First Look

The fifth book in the beloved, bestselling Harry Potter series, now illustrated in brilliant full color in a deluxe, clothbound collector’s edition. The book that took the world by storm. In his fifth year at Hogwarts, Harry faces challenges at every turn, from the dark threat of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named and the unreliability of the government of the magical world to the rise of Ron Weasley as the Keeper of the Gryffindor Quidditch Team. Along the way he learns about the strength of his friends, the fierceness of his enemies, and the meaning of sacrifice." Harry and his friends have their first Divination class with Firenze, whose teaching methods are based on centaur wisdom and therefore very different from Trelawney's. For example, centaurs believe that Astrology may predict events that are significant to mankind, but not trivial events of human lives. The room in which Firenze gives his class was bewitched to resemble his natural habitat in the Forbidden Forest. When asked why he does not teach in the Forest itself, Firenze explains that he was banned from his colony because he agreed to teach at Hogwarts, which the centaurs consider treason because they do not wish to share their wisdom with humans.

That's exactly what [Fudge] thinks you're doing, or rather, that's exactly what he's afraid Dumbledore's doing - forming his own private army, with which he will be able to take on the Ministry of Magic." — Sirius, about the Minister of Magic 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. Judging by the fact that it says “Year 1” on its spine, it’s possible that MinaLima intends to illustrate the entire series. Early First Look That’s a long wait, but it’s absolutely understandable. Creating all of these gorgeous illustrations takes time, and since there will probably only be one set of Illustrated Editions ever created, we understand Kay needs lots of time to create a perfect set of books.

As I was saying, you have been informed that a certain Dark wizard is at large once again. This is a lie" — Professor Umbridge, about Voldemort's return The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches ... born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies ... and the Dark Lord will mark him as equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not ... and either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives ... the one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies ... Fearing Voldemort is possessing him, Harry speculates this to be why Dumbledore is ignoring him and decides to seclude himself from the others for their safety. Hermione joins Harry and the Weasleys at Grimmauld Place for Christmas, and admonishes Harry for his behaviour. Ginny comforts Harry by pointing out she has been possessed by Voldemort, knows how it feels, and doesn't say Harry is being possessed. Relieved, Harry joins in the festivities. Molly Weasley: " I don't believe it! I don't believe it! Oh, Ron, how wonderful! A prefect! That's everyone in the family!" George Weasley: " What are Fred and I, next-door neighbours?" — Molly Weasley, praising Ron.Before taking part in this collaboration, did you already know the Harry Potter saga? Which other books) would you have liked to work on? We spoke with Neil and discussed his feelings, his creative process, his inspiration and much more for this book. I'll tell you what it means. It means the Ministry's interfering at Hogwarts." — Hermione, about Dolores Umbridge The illustrated Harry Potter books were on a yearly cycle until Goblet of Fire, which was published two years after Prisoner of Azkaban. The longer wait between the two books was no surprise, because the fourth book in Rowling’s series is drastically longer than POA. A longer book means more illustrations are needed, and Kay simply needed more time. After Harry explains to the Dursleys about the Dementor's abilities, Vernon is ready to throw Harry out, as he has always yearned to do so since receiving Harry, when Petunia receives a Howler. Before she has an opportunity to open the letter, it bursts into flames and a menacing voice says, "Remember my last, Petunia". Petunia then immediately convinces her husband to let Harry remain at Privet Drive and tells Harry that he needs to stay in his room. Harry has no idea of what's going on.

Ministry of Magic? People like you in government? Oh, this explains everything, everything, no wonder the country's going to the dogs -" — Uncle Vernon, about the Ministry

Harry Potter Illustrated Editions - Jim Kay FAQs

During the next Occlumency lesson, Harry uncovers the source behind Snape's hatred for his father, when he went into Dumbledore's Pensieve (borrowed by Snape) and saw both Snape's memories of being bullied by James and the breaking up of Snape and his mother's friendship. Snape ends the lesson abruptly after pulling Harry out of the Pensieve and throwing him out. The next morning the trio meet in the common room and, after taking down one of Fred and George's advertising posters, Hermione learns of the argument with Seamus and reveals that she was having the same problem with Lavender Brown about whether Harry was telling the truth about Voldemort's return. That morning at breakfast, Harry learns from Angelina Johnson that she has replaced Oliver Wood as the captain for their Quidditch team and will be holding tryouts on Friday to recruit a new player to fill Oliver's old position as Keeper. Harry reveals that he has cancelled his subscription to the Daily Prophet out of disgust. The trio then meet with Fred and George and Hermione insists they cannot advertise to test their joke products on students. The twins bring up the fact that this year is important for the three of them since they will be taking their O.W.L.s. When the twins reveal they weren't sure if they wanted to attend their seventh year for their N.E.W.T.s, George almost lets it slip on why they don't need to take them, though they and Harry cover this up as the twins leave.
