It's finally out in the open! The fifth installment of the Jim Kay-illustrated editions of the Harry Potter series is officially unveiled. In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix: The Illustrated Edition, illustrator Jim Kay got some collaborative work with the equally talented Neil Packer. The enormity of this installment is an understatement so the work they have poured into this work of art despite of the pandemic is admirable.
Some of the preview artworks are jaw-droppingly gorgeous and may be a little darker in style than the previous installments. This is a good thing because as Harry Potter ages the dangers and excitement he's facing becomes greater and greater.
