Jukka Behm’s HAMMERSMITH UNITED trilogy sold to Opal in Sweden!

Swedish rights to Jukka Behm’s critically acclaimed and bestselling YA trilogy HAMMERSMITH UNITED were just acquired by Bokförlaget Opal! Hjärtligt grattis! The series’ rights have previously been sold to Eesti raamat in Estonia and Alma Littera in Lithuania. More news to come soon. The third and final part The Scorpion’s Sting (orig. Skorpionin isku) will be published in Finland by Tammi in May 2025.

”Behm’s Wonder Boy is a fun and modern take on the classic orphan coming-of-age story. We believe it’s the kind of book that will excite all teenagers, both those who are already dedicated to literature, and those who are yet to become readers. Following the Finnish success, we look forward to see a similar reception here in Sweden.” — Anja Eriksson, Editor at Bokförlaget Opal
