Piggybacking off the success of her novel Grey, which was a retelling of the first book in the original trilogy, Fifty Shades of Grey, but from Christian’s point of view instead of Ana’s, author E. L. James just announced she’s doing the same thing with book two. That’s right. Fifty Shades Darker, except as told by Christian rather than Ana, is on the way.
James made the big announcement on Instagram, writing, “Hello all. I’m delighted to let you know that Darker: Fifty Shades Darker as told by Christian will be published in the US and UK on 28th November 2017. Other territories to follow. I do hope you enjoy it. Much love. #FiftyShades #Darker #ChristianGrey.”

She then followed up with a statement, adding, “The inside of Christian’s head is a pretty daunting place to be. Writing Darker offered me new insights into his character and motivations, and I hope readers find those insights as compelling as I did.”
