The Telegraph - 27 May 2014
Harry Potter is being re-vamped by the publishers Bloomsbury with new covers of the series by illustrator Jonny Duddle, and the second cover has now been revealed.
Harry Potter and The Chamber of Secrets is the second title in JK Rowling's seven-book series. The new illustration depicts one of the moments at the climax of the novel, when the boy wizard battles the basilisk in Hogwart's basement tunnels with Godric Gryffindor's sword and the aid of Professor Dumbledore's Phoenix, Fawkes.
It's a comparatively lively scene in comparison to the original book cover for The Chamber of Secrets, which showed Harry, his friend Ron, and his owl Hedwig aloft in a flying car en route to Hogwarts at the start of the year.
