A New Harry Potter Illustrated Edition Was Just Announced and It's Already Discounted
Yet another Harry Potter Book.
I've read all of the Harry Potter books multiple times over and they are always just as good as I remember, even after all these years. However, it is always fun to experience the story in a new way. The Harry Potter movies are one way to do that, but the illustrated editions of the books are arguably more enticing. Although the series has yet to receive a complete set of illustrated books, there is a new interactive edition of the Goblet of Fire arriving in October that you can preorder right now.
Not to be confused with the books illustrated by Jim Kay, the interactive editions of Harry Potter feature wonderful illustrations as well as paper-engineered elements that pop off the page. You can currently preorder the new book at Barnes & Noble and Amazon, but the biggest discount is at the latter.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire: Interactive Illustrated Edition Preorder
This illustrated edition features 150 full-color illustrations and elements similar to a pop-up book. The new book is illustrated by Karl James Mountford and the papercraft designs were made by Jess Tice-Gilbert. This is a different group of creatives that worked on this book after the previous interactive illustrated editions from MinaLima were discontinued after The Prisoner of Azkaban. Although the illustrations and interactive elements in this book won't be the same, it is good news for collectors who were hoping to finish adding all of these editions to their shelves.

What About the Other Illustrated Editions?
The other Harry Potter books that were illustrated by Jim Kay currently only run through book five. In 2022, Kay stepped down from the project, so it is unclear if and when we will get versions for The Half Blood Prince and The Deathly Hallows. That being said, there is still some hope that the series will be finished by a new illustrator.
