The Vampire DiariesAccording to HarperTeen.com, the first two volumes of The Vampire DiariesThe Awakening and The Struggle – will be re-released individually in North America on August 25th, and they’re available for pre-order:

The Vampire Diaries: The Awakening
ISBN: 9780061963865; ISBN10: 0061963860; Imprint: HarperTeen ; On Sale: 8/25/2009; Format: Paperback; Trimsize: 5 5/16 x 8; Pages: 272; $6.00; Ages: 12 and Up

The Vampire Diaries: The Struggle
ISBN: 9780061963872; ISBN10: 0061963879; Imprint: HarperTeen ; On Sale: 8/25/2009; Format: Paperback; Trimsize: 5 5/16 x 8; Pages: 256; $6.00; Ages: 12 and Up

Obviously this is only a few weeks before the September 10th premiere of the television series, so we can’t help but wonder if the books will feature tie-in artwork (cover art is currently unavailable). And, if so, we’re curious what that artwork will be, particularly if it features the actors – for reasons we probably don’t need to spell out at this point.

In any case, the collectors among you can raise your fists to the heavens in anguish – there’s more to buy!

Update: Poll added – what do you all think?

What kind of covers would you like to see for the reprints?

    I hope it’s a tie in with the actors on the cover. I’d buy it!!

    I remember when those books were 3.99

    I feel so old=p

    I say stay with the original. The characters in the book differ slightly from the actors so it would be weird to have a brunette Elena on the cover when it clearly states she’s blond. That could be misleading. People could mistake her for Meredith or something.It was just alter the books standpoint and push the image of the show if they did that.

    I think it would be hilarious if they used the actors. But my vote would be 1991 covers. Pleaseandthankyou.

    Considering those have already been re-released once, I doubt we’ll see that artwork again. Not to mention the current trend of using photography over illustration.

    I’m 99.2% (yeah, that’s right, POINT TWO) positive it’s going to be TV artwork. If not the actors, at least the logo. But I’m leaning actors – from a marketing standpoint, putting Wesley and Somerhalder on the books certainly wouldn’t hurt sales.

    Guess it can’t be worse than Sanjulian.

    …can it?
