Críticas
Boris Akunin shows how it should be done ... an absurdly imaginative story, surreal and comic ... irresistible (The Times)
Fandorin is an impossibly heroic figure ... irresistible (The Times)
The beguiling, super-brainy, sexy, unpredictable Fandorin is a creation like no other in crime fiction (The Times)
Extraordinarily readable, full of incident and excitement, swift-moving and told with a sparkling light-heartedness which is impossible to resist (Evening Standard)
His characters are outrageous and thoroughly unbelievable. Fandorin is an impossibly heroic figure. The combination is irrestible. (Marcel Berlins THE TIMES)
self-indulgently enjoyable... (Akunin's) artfully constructed novel also nods in the direction of Arthur Conan Doyle (John Thornhill FINANCIAL TIMES)
A special treat for Akunin's fans (Jessica Mann LITERARY REVIEW)
Reseña del editor
Still a persona non grata in Moscow, ostracised by the authorities and shamed by the very qualified success of his last mission, Fandorin is back in his most underground enquiry to date.
There's been rising consternation in fin-de-siècle Moscow over a wave of suicides among the city's young bohemians. An intrepid newspaper reporter, Zhemailo, begins to uncover the truth behind the phenomenon - that the victims are linked by a secret society, the Lovers of Death. But Zhemailo is not the only investigator hot on the heels of these disciples of the occult. Little do they realise that the latest 'convert' to their secret society, assuming the alias of a Japanese prince, is none other than Erast Fandorin. But when a young and naïve provincial woman, Masha Mironova, becomes embroiled in the society, and Zhemalio dies a mysterious death, Fandorin must do more than merely infiltrate and observe. Especially when the spin of the Russian roulette wheel decrees that our dashing hero be the next to die by his own hand. Can Fandorin fake his own demise, all while outwitting the cult's dastardly leader? Find out in this fascinating journey through the dark underbelly of the fin-de-siècle.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Near Fine. First Edition in English. First impression of the first UK edition, and first edition in English translation, being translated from the Russian into English by Andrew Bromfield. *** The eighth title in the critically acclaimed crime fiction series of novels featuring the 19th-century James Bond, Erast Fandorin by Boris Akunin. ***Near fine in red cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine. No bumps. No creases. Corners sharp. Boards clean and unmarked. Spine tight. Pages bright and clean.

Front and rear panels and spine of dustwrapper bright. ***263 pages. 224 mm x 142 mm. ***'Hilarious and dashing Erast Fandorin, Akunin's debonair Russian Sherlock Holmes - just seems to get better and better - his plots are intricate and tantalizing - they are unputdownable and great fun. This is a stunning continuation of form from a Russian author whose thriller writing is world class'. Sunday Express ***'A witty, rip-roaring thrill-fest'. Time Out (Critical praise for Boris Akunin from the back panel of the dustwrapper). ***'Boris Akunin is the pseudonym of Grigory Chkhartishvili. He has been compared to Gogol, Tolstoy and Arthur Conan Doyle, and his Erast Fandorin books have sold over eight million copies in Russia alone. He lives in Moscow.' (Quote taken from rear flap of dustwrapper). ***'Chkhartishvili "prefers to work with historical material" and has been called the "undisputed champion" of Russian crime fiction given that as Boris Akunin he "has written more than a dozen crime novels and has been widely appreciated by discerning readers, and has been translated into many languages. ***The first Fandorin novel, "The Winter Queen", was published in Russia in 1998, and the latest and the last one, "Not Saying Goodbye", in 2018. The English translations of the novels have been critically acclaimed by, among others, Ruth Rendell.
