“I have long wanted to tell a sweeping, romantic love story, and when the character of astronomer Joan Goodwin came to me, I knew I had found my way in," Reid said in a statement Wednesday.
According to Ballantine, “Atmosphere” will tell “a passionate and soaring story about the transformative power of love, this time among the stars.” Reid's previous books, which also include “Malibu Rising” and “The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo,” have sold millions of copies worldwide. “Daisy Jones & The Six” was adapted into an Emmy-nominated miniseries starring Riley Keough.
