Editorial reviews

The love story of Christian and Ana is uncovered in the much-anticipated new release audiobook, Grey, written by international best-selling author of the Fifty Shades series, E. L. James and narrated by Zachary Webber. Ana came into his life unexpectedly but from the moment she did, he knew it had changed forever. She drove him to the depths of a dark, intense desire. There was so much he wanted to tell her about his past, who he really was. Would she run if she knew the truth? Hear it all through the eyes of Christian Grey. Available now from Audible.

Publisher's Summary

In Christian’s own words, and through his thoughts, reflections, and dreams, E L James offers a fresh perspective on the love story that has enthralled millions of readers around the world.

Christian Grey exercises control in all things; his world is neat, disciplined, and utterly empty - until the day that Anastasia Steele falls into his office in a tangle of shapely limbs and tumbling brown hair.

He tries to forget her but instead is swept up in a storm of emotion he cannot comprehend and cannot resist. Unlike any woman he has known before, shy, unworldly Ana seems to see right through him - past the business prodigy and the penthouse lifestyle to Christian’s cold, wounded heart.

Will being with Ana dispel the horrors of his childhood that haunt Christian every night? Or will his dark sexual desires, his compulsion to control, and the self-loathing that fills his soul drive this girl away and destroy the fragile hope she offers him?

Needs Re-recording NOW

THE WORST narration. Not sure I can listen to the whole thing. As we all know, the writing isn't great to start with but at least Becca Battoe gave the first three books some personality, thus getting to know characters and enabling you to loose yourself a little (and accept the books for what they were). This guy has absolutely NO intonation, rhythm - I could go on! Considering this is such a high profile book, I can't believe more care wasn't taken over the choice of narrator, direction/production. It seems the rush to get it out on audio has proved it's downfall. Extremely hard to listen to.

From a writing point of view, of course expectations cannot be high. However, for a complicated character like Christian Grey (as hinted at from Ana's pov in first three books) I'm hugely disappointed with his pedestrian thinking. I thought she might have injected something in there that we didn't already know by reading the first three books. That said, I've only managed to listen to the first few hours (for reasons described above). Maybe that's all I'll manage!

Hugely disappointed thus far.

Refreshing

Clear up Grey's behaviour, personally I didn't like the voice of the narrator,sound too old. I now also can relate the actor from the movie, Yes I was one who didn't like him for Grey I couldn't relate him to my Grey, But he portrait this Grey very well.

Don't waste your time

It is literally just regurgaling the first book. The narrator doing Ana's and little Christians voice over is quite frankly, creepy.

I have no idea why I thought listening to this nonsense would be a good idea. Rather read the original book again before listening to this.

Easy listen

But raunchy storyline but you know what you're getting before you start. I found it a bit repetitive at times. Otherwise interesting listen

Interesting

Another great book in this series. My interpretation of this series is that it is about how a young man overcomes his abuse and lose both in his early life and as a yonng teen through the understanding and love of the woman with whom he falls in love. It is about developing communications and a willingness to compromise and sacrifice for that love.

More of an Off White, than Grey

Story is a copy and paste of the original, with very little of the "More" I was expecting to give incite into the Christian Grey mindset. Narration is above average but the changing of the pronunciation of names was distracting. Overall A bit like the Movie, would be OK if you listened to it first, but a real let down after the original.

Perfect narration voice!!

Blown away at how attractive the narrator’s voice is - perfectly suited to Mr Grey. Couldn’t stop listening.
