He Lover of Death by Boris Akunin
Akunin goes noir as Fandorin meets bandits!
Boris Akunin shows how it should be done.. an absurdly imaginative story, surreal and comic ... irresistible * The Times *
Erast Fandorin is a delightful character like no other in crime fiction * The Times *
Akunin is an outstanding novelist ... Gloriously tongue-in-cheek but seriously edge-of-your-seat at the same time * Daily Express *
Self-indulgently enjoyable ... [Akunin's] artfully constructed novel also nods in thr direction of Arthur Conan Doyle * Financial Times *
A special treat for Akunin's fans * Literary Review *
He writes a cracking good story, full of vivid and interesting characters, and the pace never flags for a moment. -- Joanna HInes * GUARDIAN *
Speedy is a marvellous creation, and Fandorin suitably opaque; the gangsters are variously grim and the aptly named femme fatale is a tidy piece of work. -- James Urquhart * FINANCIAL TIMES *
A brilliant and witty discovery! * TELEGRAPH & ARGUS *
