I loved the first volume of this trilogy. I look forward to reading the other 2 (that are already pre-order the way! I did not resist the need to know a little of what is going to happen but hey not too much!) I who like a little tortured hero, mysterious ... there it is true that I have not been disappointed. We want to understand how Christian became the man who wants to have control over everything. It has from the beginning a strong grip on Anastasia, one feels that he is on edge sometimes very attracted to her (and vice versa for that matter). This is a man of many facets, a very difficult past, a need for self-destruction, have gradually led to this addiction sulfur games. Of course it is a book not to put all hands, of course we know what to expect, but I must say I was not shocked by the passages "hot" book. It is not 100% not pornographic! Finally, to sum up, I loved this book for its rather unusual story, the tension one feels at times, the protective side of Christian who wants to fill his beautiful in all areas (I could have the same gifts that Anastasia?). In short I totally adheres you will understand!
