Bloomsbury announced that a deluxe edition of Jim Kay’s long-awaited illustrated version of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire will be released alongside the standard illustrated edition, and both are available for pre-order now! Both editions will also be available in stores Oct. 8.
The special deluxe edition hardback will feature a gorgeous green cloth cover with foiled slipcase, as well as gilt edging. Kay’s sketch of Hogwarts graces the front cover while the Hungarian Horntail holds a prominent place on the slipcover. Fans pre-ordering through the Bloomsbury website will receive an exclusive tote along with their copy of the Goblet of Fire.
Deluxe edition orders come with a sleek black tote featuring the Hungarian Horntail. Standard edition pre-orders also come with an exclusive tote, which features a color illustration from the book of Harry facing off with the fearsome dragon.
