OR Make your choice. I think I prefer the UK version on all the books, apart from the Chamber Of Secrets, in which I hate both, but probably like the US version more. Book 1-UK Book 2-US Book 3-UK Book 4-UK (the uk GoF, is the best Harry Potter cover art I've seen) Book 5-UK

Book 1 - Us Book 2 - Us Book 3 - UK Book 4- UK Book 5 - US.
I have to say that I like US more, not because I was born here, but because it seems that in different parts they're detailed better. UK's third and fourth and fifth are really good, though, I have to admit.
Book five, on the back, has Tonks and Lupin and Moody, so you know that they'll be there, and the book just seems to give a good approach.

Spiffy...
Any chance you could scan it?
On the back of OotP (UK) is a magnificant picture of the fountain as described in the chapter 'The Ministry Of Magic'

I like the US covers better myself. Though the Uk versions aren't bad. (I own them, except for book 5.)

I prefer the UK version for all of them, except Book the First, in which I prefer neither.
But I like both OotP covers. And the UK version of GoF is my favorite.
