Bookseller.com reports that UK Harry Potter publishers, Bloomsbury, will reprint new paperback editions of the Harry Potter series with new covers.
You can check out the new covers in our galleries here.
These new paperback editions are being released to appeal to a new generation of readers who haven't grown up with the series.
The new "Signature" livery was created by Webb and Webb Design Limited, with illustrations by linocut artist Clare Melinsky on the front cover, back cover and spine, to "appeal to the next generation of readers who did not 'grow up' with Harry Potter and who have not yet experienced the thrill of life at Hogwarts", according to the publisher.Melinsky said: "I was delighted and excited to be asked to illustrate the covers for such massively famous books—and seven of them! It was top secret for the best part of a year."
The books will be available on November 1st, 2010.
