Hello everyone! Today in starting this new section
of my blog titled “Covers Around the World”
in which I will post the different covers that I could find of a book or series
in different languages.
The first one in doing is the Artemis Fowl series. I chose this one because the last time I went
to book off I found three different covers of this series on the same shelf. I only
own the first book of this series and I haven’t finished it yet, but while
doing my research for covers I found out that there are only 6 out of 8 books
in the edition I own.
If you don’t know the Artemis fowl series I will
leave here the synopsis of the first book from goodreads.
Synopsis
Twelve-year-old
Artemis Fowl is a millionaire, a genius—and, above all, a criminal mastermind.
But even Artemis doesn't know what he's taken on when he kidnaps a fairy,
Captain Holly Short of the LEPrecon Unit. These aren't the fairies of bedtime
stories—they're dangerous! Full of unexpected twists and turns,Artemis Fowl is a riveting, magical adventure.
There are a lot of
different covers for the first book, but only few languages made it to the eight
one, so I’ll start with the editions that contain the whole series (8 books).
Inside brackets you
can find the publishing house name only if the country has different versions.
