The result of all this success was a major publishing battle for rights to the story (which Tor Books ultimately won) and a deal with Amazon Studios to adapt a television version of the suddenly uber-popular novel.Ī revised and edited edition of The Atlas Six with brand new illustrations hit shelves this week ahead of the release of the sequel The Atlas Paradox this Fall and let’s put it this way: The time to get on this fantasy hype train is right now. Olivie Blake’s dark academia fantasy novel was originally self-published via Kindle Digital Publishing in early 2020 but went viral on social media site TikTok last year, garnering over 11 million mentions and dominating discussion for months. (Remember when we had to tell people not to eat Tide Pods?) This is why it’s such a relief that last summer’s massive BookTok hit The Atlas Six is actually just as good as everyone online said it was.
It is a truth universally acknowledged that an awful lot of the things that earn the label of “viral sensation” online don’t quite live up to the hype.
