★ 湯瑪斯.泰勒原版插畫封面,重現最經典的哈利波特
★ 內文重新編排,帶來更優質舒適的閱讀體驗
★ 加碼收錄額外獨家內容
盛大紀念《哈利波特》出版「銀禧年」25 週年,英國 Bloomsbury 出版社於 2022 年推出特別紀念版,限時復刻經典中的經典。封面採用湯瑪斯.泰勒(Thomas Taylor)的原版插圖,可以看到頭上有著招牌閃電疤痕的哈利波特,就站在9 3/4月台上的霍格華茲特快車旁,重現初代粉絲對哈利波特的第一印象。
25 週年紀念版本為精裝外加書衣,封面貼有銀色紀念貼紙,書背和封底則繪有鄧不利多教授的插圖。眼尖的書迷會發現,封底的插圖和 1997 年初版不同,當時插畫家湯瑪斯.泰勒以其父親為原型,繪製出他腦中想像的巫師形象,而在之後的改版中,這張插圖則改由廣為人知的鄧不利多教授的插圖所取代。此版本內文完整收錄 J.K. 羅琳原文故事,隨著麻瓜科技的進步,編輯也將文字版面重新編排設計,希望能為讀者提供更舒適的閱讀體驗。此外,更加碼收錄額外的獨家內容,包含 J.K. 羅琳的素描圖稿,以及湯瑪斯.泰勒述說他如何從一位剛畢業的年輕創作者,成為哈利波特最初版封面的繪者。
1997 年《哈利波特 1:神秘的魔法石》出版後,隨即在全世界掀起巨大的魔法旋風,經歷 1/4 個世紀後,哈利波特更成為屹立不搖的文化象徵,讓全球數億粉絲為之深深著迷。透過這本紀念版本,帶領哈迷回到魔法的起點,重溫最初的興奮和感動,也適合剛加入魔法世界的新讀者,一同展開迷人的魔法旅程。
