We are really glad to let you know that the Icelandic e-book and audio rights for all 3 titles in SNOW WHITE TRILOGY have been sold to StorySide Iceland! The deal was closed by Toomas Aasmäe at Elina Ahlback Literary Agency.
The Snow White Trilogy is an amazing YA series and I’m happy to be able to finally present the whole series for Icelandic readers. The books are extremely well written, total page-turners, and the main character is as cool as ice. Salla Simukka is # 1 Finland’s internationally most translated author with her SNOW WHITE TRILOGY that has been sold to 52 countries and has a major international TV show in the works in Hollywood. See Salla Simukka’s story of becoming a writer in the clip below. Salla Simukka: “Books can be someone you can talk to when growing up” by Salla Simukka#1 As Red as Blood (Tammi, 2013)It’s the coldest winter in decades: the streets of Tampere are frozen and white with snow. And nothing is as red against white snow as blood… 17-year-old Lumikki Andersson goes to a high school of performing arts. She has made it a rule to stay out of things that do not involve her. However, the rule is put to the test on leap day when she finds washed five hundred euro notes hung to dry in her school’s darkroom. Soon Lumikki finds herself caught in a tangled web of international drug trafficking.#2 As White as Snow (Tammi, 2013) Lumikki Andersson is backpacking in Prague, where the weather is scorching hot. A girl approaches her in a small café and claims to be her stepsister. Lumikki’s parents seem to be hiding a secret concerning the family’s past, so the girl’s claim rouses Lumikki’s interest. Despite her erratic behaviour, the girl manages to persuade Lumikki to join a religious community. But the religion of the cult is not pure; and innocence is not as white as snow… #3 As Black as Ebony Lumikki Andersson is set to play the leading role in a modern-day version of Snow White at her high school. As opening night approaches, Lumikki starts receiving notes from a secret admirer whose infatuation soon turns out to be a dangerous obsession. The admirer threatens to turn the premiere into a bloodbath unless Lumikki consents to his demands. Time is running out, the opening night is just around the corner and Lumikki has to find a way to outwit the stalker with a soul as black as ebony.
