L’ho sfogliato e letto con cura, ho ammirato ogni dettaglio, ogni disegno , ogni particolare che ci viene spiegato. I especially enjoyed seeing the concepts that didn't eventually make it into the movies. It's fun to imagine how different the movies would have been had they made a few different choices. Keep the fascinating magical creatures of the wizarding world close at hand with this miniature art book featuring concept art from the Harry Potter films. Is the book worth it..eh..maybe. If you haven't read the movie magic/vault books, then by all means, yes this book is worth it. If you want to read the artifact vault, movie locations, etc books, then maybe hold off on this one as all those books are expensive as well, and you will learn a lot more from those books than this one. Don't hate me for this people! Here's the thing, the artwork is BEAUTIFUL, don't get me wrong, BUT if you've read the movie books, aka artifacts, locations, creatures, characters, etc, where they show you the behind the scene stuff...we've seen the majority of these photos before. Therefore, for the price, it's hard to justify buying this book..again. And the worst part is, they sealed the book so you don't realize this until AFTER you buy it. Granted, the pictures are in a bigger format so you can see some newer details you might have missed before, but, for the price, I expected a lot more. I wanted a lot more newer photos, newer things we hadn't seen, etc. There's very little writing in the book, no chapters with explanations (for example, we see that indeed they had planned on making Hermione's dress Periwinkle Blue! There's even artwork to prove it!) but we don't know why things were changed etc.

This is a massive book - honestly its impressive in almost every aspect - including cutting off circulation to parts of your body while reading it in bed. Ideally these images would look superb interspersed into and illustrating the text of a new edition of J.K. Rowling’s novels. come se veniamo catapultati all’interno del mondo delle riprese e ci viene spiegato ogni minima cosa che è stata creata My favorite part was the chapter on the graphic arts department. MinaLima (the graphic designers that worked on all the films) are so talented and I love their work. I'd frame it all if I could. Chapter Four: Artifacts includes so many items, such as wands, brooms, Quidditch items, dark objects, Horcruxes, portraits and items from Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes.

Un meraviglioso libro che per chi come me è davvero un fan sfegatato deve assolutamente avere in libreria Chapter One: The Wizarding World contains beautiful scenes of the Muggle world, Hogwarts, Diagon Alley, Hogsmeade, Wizarding homes and even the Quidditch World Cup! The magical world of the Harry Potter film series is filled with captivating and curious creatures, from the fearsome dragons of the Triwizard Tournament to the crafty goblins of Gringotts Bank to the owls who carry the wizarding post. To bring these creatures to life onscreen, an extraordinary team of artists created a huge collection of sketches, drawings, paintings, and digital renders, drawing some creatures from established mythology and others from the depths of their imagination.Chapter Three: Magical Creatures includes those such as companions, dragons, house elves, Forbidden Forest dwellers and dark creatures. Per chi mi conosce bene sa che io amo il nostro piccolo maghetto, amo tutto il mondo di Harry, la magia i costumi le scene e questo libro devo dire è stato il regalo più inaspettato è meraviglioso che mi potesse arrivare per il mio 29 esimo compleanno.
