I'm sorry if this was asked anywhere else, but as a huge fan of John I can not help wanting to read this novel.

The first part of the trilogy, Himmelstrand, will come this summer, about two years after it was published in Swedish. Assuming a similar timing for Rörelsen, it would come in English in the summer of 2017.
But from the beginning Eli was just Eli. Nothing. Anything. And he is still a mystery to me. John Ajvide Lindqvist

Text Publishing in Australia lists the publishing date there as 2 July 2018. Unfortunately, it appears it will only be published there in paperback. I'll still buy it, but I would prefer hardback. :roll:
...the story derives a lot of its appeal from its sense of despair and a darkness in which the love of Eli and Oskar seems to shine with a strange and disturbing light.
