Published by Bloomsbury Publishing, this set has front and back cover art by Jonny Duddle, with new interior illustrations by Tomislav Tomić. In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Chapter 11 ( The Duelling Club), Harry leaves the library, walks along this corridor, walks up a staircase, and is then in a corridor around the corner from the headmaster's office. If one continues up through the levels of the library, they will eventually gain access to the top of the tower, where Astronomy studies are conducted.

Given that I’m not a sports fan, you would think this would be tedious to me — but, believe it or not, this book is actually funny. Till this date, Wilharm's version remains the sole German edition of Hogwarts Library to have a unique set of covers. This edition is available in both hardback and paperback, though prior to 9 January, 2020, [8] the box set had been only available in hardback.
