What picture shows a dramatic gold and orange sky and a teenage boy in
glasses reaching upward?
It's the cover to the seventh and final Harry Potter book, "Harry Potter and
the Deathly Hallows," coming out
July 21. As always, the cover was designed by illustrator Mary GrandPre, U.S.
publisher Scholastic, Inc., announced Wednesday.
"The structures around Harry show evident destruction and in the shadows
behind him, we see outlines of other people," David Saylor, Scholastic's art
director, said in a statement.
"For the first time, the cover is a
wraparound. On the back cover spidery hands are outstretched
toward Harry. Only when the book is opened does one see a powerful image of
He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named, his glowing red eyes peering out from his hood."
J.K. Rowling's fantasy series has sold more than 325 million copies
worldwide. "Deathly Hallows" has an announced first printing of 12 million in
the United States alone.
The cover for the children's
edition released by Bloomsbury Publishing PLC, Rowling's British
publisher, shows an adult-looking Harry, Hermione and Ron. The adult edition has
a photograph of a locket bearing a serpentine "S" believed to be the "horcrux"
in which Lord Voldemort keeps a fragment of his soul.
