Barti in lion form.

(That the lion is holding the Amulet is a bit of artistic license however.)

The lion is holding the amulet? Where? I know the cover for AoS is Bart holding the amulet, and PG is the lioness form, but I see no lion in AoS nor any amulet in PG.

Oh, you're talking about THOSE covers. Those are perhaps even better. I mean, seriously. Golem's Eye has HONORIUS in it.

Yes, the British ones are quite clearly the best..

I assume he meant that one, anyway - it's the only one I'm aware of with a lion on the cover.

This is what I was referring to. Barty in lioness form on cover of PG.

Oh, that's supposed to be a lion? The clothes and fingers had me confused..

Artistic license, but yeah, it's the lioness.

All the covers look brilliant to me.
Well, that's partly because I'm the hugest Bart/JS fan in the world, and can never ever criticize anything related to the books.

So you can't criticize the fact that there are only 3 books?

It's not that hard to accept that fact and find it reasonable...

Meh. I critizise the fact that there aren't more, but maybe critizise is the wrong term.

Or even the wrong spelling.

It is. The correct term is criticise/criticize.

I was never one for spelling. Especially for suckers like criticise or vegetable.
