Bakunin was a 19th century Russian revolutionary. B. Akunin is the pseudonym used by Russia's most popular mystery writer.
I just read the first of his Erast Fandonin mysteries, The Winter Queen, set in 19th century Moscow, St. Petersburg and London. I found it short, but tedious, and of little interest. It had a terrible ending, and the start and middle weren't so hot, either.
On Amazon, there are 60 reader reviews of this book. That is quite a large number. The majority of the reviewers loved the book; the minority absolutely hated it. No one was indifferent.
