The boy who lived.
Fans of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter have another book to add to the shelf. Just released is the fifth volume of the gorgeous illustrated hardcover editions of the Harry Potter series. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Illustrated Edition normally retails for $54.99, but Amazon has it
on sale for $32.99 right now. Note: I'm seeing some confusion in the comments section and thought I'd clear it up. These are not graphic novels. These are big hardcover editions of the original novels, but with illustrations added every few pages throughout.Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: The Illustrated Edition
Book 5
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: The Illustrated Edition
Order of the Phoenix is the latest illustrated edition, and it's also the longest. This massive tome is 576 pages long. That shouldn't be a surprise, as the books grew in length as the series went on. It's illustrated with full-color images throughout by Jim Kay and Neil Packer. Some of the illustrations are full pages--or double-page spreads--while others are smaller images set among the text itself. It's makes for a strikingly gorgeous book and an immersive read.

While mermaids are forbidden to interact with humans, Ariel must follow her heart. She makes a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, which gives her a chance to experience life on land, but ultimately places her life – and her father’s crown – in jeopardy. The Little Mermaid, directed by Rob Marshall, opens in theaters nationwide on May 26, 2023.
