A comprehensive biography of pop diva Beyonce Knowles is slated for release in the fall of 2015, an announcement from Grand Central Books said. J. Randy Taraborrelli writes the still untitled book.
The bio will "explore all facets of Knowles' life," which commences from her childhood performances through her stint as a member of Destiny's Child, progressing to her career as a solo performer and then her marriage to Jay Z.

Taraborrelli has nothing but admiration to the multi-Grammy-winning singer.
"Beyoncé has lived a most incredible, inspiring life. I know my readers will enjoy her journey," he said in a statement.
Although the book is an unauthorized one and Knowles is not participating in the process of writing it, Taraborrelli will base the book on interviews with people "who have been pivotal to her personal and professional development."
Taraborrelli has also written the biographies of Michael Jackson, Madonna and the Hilton family.
Knowles has been a popular figure in the music industry since her Destiny's Child days in early 2000s. The singer's career as a solo performer went uphill eventually. Just recently, her On the Run Tour with Jay Z ended up as a huge success.
In September, HBO aired a special documentary that featured the couple during their concert tour. Her self-titled album is 2014's top selling record, selling over 800,000 copies this year after it hit the market late in 2013.
With a career that has spanned 17 years, Beyonce has already scored 17 Grammy Awards and a total of 75 million sold worldwide as a solo artist and a further 60 million sold with Destiny's Child, making her one of the best-selling music artists of all time.
She was hailed by the Recording Artists Association of America as the Top Certified Artist during the 2000s decade. In 2009, Billboard named her the Top Radio Songs Artist of the Decade, the Top Female Artist of the 2000s and their Artist of the Millennium in 2011.
