Fifty Shades is a series of erotic novels by British author E. L. James, initially a trilogy consisting of Fifty Shades of Grey (2011), Fifty Shades Darker (2012) and Fifty Shades Freed (2012).[1][2] The series traces the deepening relationship between college graduate Anastasia Steele and young businessman Christian Grey. Christian introduces Ana to the world of BDSM.

The author has spoken of her shock at the success of the book: "The explosion of interest has taken me completely by surprise."[3] James has described the Fifty Shades trilogy as "my midlife crisis, writ large. All my fantasies in there, and that's it."[4] She did not start to write until January 2009, as she revealed while still active on FanFiction.Net: "I started writing in January 2009 after I finished reading the Twilight saga, and I haven't stopped since. I discovered Fan Fiction in August 2009. Since then I have written two fics and plan on doing at least one more. After that ... who knows?"[5] In August 2013, sales of the trilogy saw James top the Forbes' list of the highest-earning authors[6] with earnings of $95 million, which included $5 million for the film rights to Fifty Shades of Grey.[7] In spite of the success, the books have also been largely panned by critics,[8] with the first entry in particular "being ridiculed by virtually every critic who has read it."[9]

Since 2015 the series has been expanded with a parallel set of novels "as told by Christian": Grey follows the events of Fifty Shades of Grey but from the perspective of Christian Grey, Darker (2017) and Freed (2021) do the same for Fifty Shades Darker and Fifty Shades Freed, respectively.
