Sequel to Fifty Shades of Grey, told from Christian’s perspective, is the most pre-ordered book of the year
The novel, which gives Christian Grey’s perspective on the events in Fifty Shades of Grey, an erotic trilogy narrated by student Anastasia Steele, was announced two weeks ago after what James has said were the “thousands” of requests she received from fans asking for Christian’s point of view. Out today, the novel is Amazon.co.uk’s most pre-ordered book of the year in ebook and print, and Amy Worth, director of Kindle content at the online retailer, expects it “to be one of the biggest releases of 2015”.
Waterstones fiction buyer Chris White said that shops across the UK had boxes of copies of Grey waiting to be opened this morning. “It’s our fastest growing-pre-order of the year,” White said. “Fifty Shades was an e-phenomenon first, but it still sold 12m copies in physical, so even if it’s only crumbs the shops will pick up, we’re quite happy with that ... And from pre-orders, there are a lot of people out there who are very keen to get their hands on it.”
