“Prisoner of Azkaban” MinaLima Illustrated Edition Reveals Cover and Release Date
After announcing the third book in its illustrated Harry Potter series last fall, graphic design team MinaLima has now revealed the cover of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, along with a look inside and when we can expect to get it in our hands.
The cover image features Harry and Hermione flying on Buckbeak in front of the full moon (similar to the original Bloomsbury cover), with the lake and Hogwarts below.

We’ve also been teased with a few inside spreads. The first shows Harry and other kids gathered admiringly around the Firebolt in Quality Quidditch Supplies in Diagon Alley. The second shows Trelawney’s Divination classroom at the start of Chapter 6, “Talons and Tea Leaves.” And the third shows professors inside the Three Broomsticks at Christmastime while shoppers stroll up Hogsmeade’s High Street.
In addition, there’s an enticing video that flips through the pages of the book and lands on a foldout of all kinds of colorful characters on the Knight Bus.
