At a formal press conference covered by the Ukrainian Independent Information Agency, the cover art for the Ukrainian edition of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” was released by publishers A-BA-BA-HA-LA-MA-HA. HPClub.com.ua let us know they now have this very dramatic (and very spoiler filled) cover art, including the back cover art, available for fans. You can see this stunning artwork here in our galleries, along with the previous Ukraine Harry Potter books cover art. The Ukrainian edition of the final Harry Potter novel is set for release at the end of this month.
But totally awesome, all the same. I liked how they used the actors from the films as jumping off points for the character art. Very interesting. I dug it.
wow! the cover is very good! but… it’s really obvious that the first three books came out before the movies, and you can see the 4th book cover it is un-mistakingly Dan’s face, which i personally find unimaginative. like they don’t want to see the movies and books as separate entities. they’re lovely all the same, i just think it’s funny :)

Does anybody know how to get Greek translations? I have seen PS on Amazon, but none of the others. My brother has refused to read HP, but is now learning Greek and said he’d read them if they were in Greek. He’s difficult, I know.
A complete opposite of the french cover. Highly detailed and spoilery. I like the looks and the visual but it really tells a lot. Why does the Publisher’s name sounds like someone’s laughing or trying to talk with a very hoy potato on their mouth?
just half-assedly doing a google search. i’m assuming if you’re brother’s learning he has access to someone that can help him with reading the website.
but yeah, as for the art i like to keep the movie and book imagery as far from each other as possible. as far as noisy art goes i prefer the swedish, very grim.
Y DID THEY JUST SHOW US THAT NOW…for some reason I remember seeing it b4 today!!!??....maybe im wrong…who knows…actually if u do please tell me…? :)

I like the cover, except for “Super Herm” – and I wonder, if we hadn’t read the book, would we think they are spoilers?
The picture of Dobby would have us wonder “Ooooh, somebody dies!!!”
and the head on Nagini would make us wonder, perhaps, if Nagini is an animagi,
and the scene with Hagrid and Harry on the motorcycle would just make us wonder what’s going on…
It has great details, even if it is a little loud.
Hmm…I have to agree with most of the bashers…It’s to action packed…I do, however, appreciate the interpretation of Shell Cottage! And why is Bathilda’s head on Nagini? If anything shouldn’t it have been the reverse? Maybe there was a typo in the manusrcipt that made it seem like bathilda’s head was coming out of Nagini’s…hahaha

I am really partial to the U.S. versions and prefer them over most of the other covers, escpecially the UK versions; But this Ukrainian one is awesome! I love it! So detailed and cool. Is the crown Harry is holding suposed to be the Diadeim[sp]?
Wow…really cool! I thought Ron was Hermione and Hermione was Ginny for a second ther. So many details. Bathilda coming out of the snake is a little creepy, though. I love the battle in the sky!!!!

I think the cover is awesome. I spent like five minutes staring at it picking out little images from the book. It was like a Where’s Waldo picture. The head of the snake kind of threw me for a bit, but then I figured that it was because of Bathilda Bagshot.
Harry felt as though he were carrying some kind of talisman inside his chest over the following two weeks, a glowing secret that supported him through Umbridge's classes and even made it possible for him to smile blandly as he looked into her horrible bul
wow! It’s like one huge spoiler!!
