First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.


text: [[quoteright:179:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fandorin_4342.jpg]]Erast Fandorin is the eponymous protagonist of a highly popular Russian HistoricalDetectiveFiction series set in the 19th century. He starts off as a regular police clerk in Moscow in 1876 and eventually becomes a GreatDetective of international renown, on one occasion employed even by the {{Tsar|istRussia}} himself. Early in his career, he exiles himself to Japan, learns the ways of the {{ninja}}s, and returns even more badass than before. Later in his life, he becomes a technology {{geek}} (while retaining his badassitude, of course) with a special fondness for {{Cool Car}}s.The books were written by Boris Akunin (his real name is Grigory Shalvovich Chkhartishvili but it's [[{{Gesundheit}} too difficult to pronounce]]) and noted for their eloquent writing style, remarkable characters, intelligent mysteries, and countless references to Russian history and literature. Every book in the series belongs to a different subgenre of detective mystery (GovernmentConspiracy, SpyDrama, ProfessionalKiller mystery, etc.). English translations were published for every novel through ''The Diamond Chariot''. Akunin has also written several novels set in the present day and starring Fandorin's grandson Nicholas Fandorin.A full list of published novels can be found on the [[Recap/ErastFandorin Recap page]].See also ''Literature/SisterPelagia'', for the other detective series by Boris Akunin known to the English reader.----!!The series provides examples of:* AccidentalBargainingSkills: In ''The Jack of Spades'', Fandorin tries to convince his future protege Tulipov to leave his old job and work for him full-time by making him increasingly generous employment offers—all the while Tulipov is at a loss for words because he's so flabbergasted by the very perspective of becoming Fandorin's assistant. * AgentProvocateur: ''The State Councilor'' novel contains enough of these to make Erast Fandorin swear he'll never take political cases again.* AKA47: Fandorin usually uses a fictional "Herstal-Agent" revolver. It is small, flattish, accurate only at short distances, and holds seven cartridges--all in all, a revolver {{Expy}} of then-not-yet-designed FN-Browning M1900 (a.k.a. Browning No.1) semiautomatic. The name "Herstal-Agent" is a ShoutOut--Herstal being the Belgian town where the FN firearms factory is located. From the second part of ''The Diamond Chariot'' onwards, Fandorin uses a Browning semiautomatic. On the other hand, the description of Herstal-Agent, especially safety located where the hammer would normally be on a revolver, is a rare feature in revolvers in general, and is a very distinctive feature of Webley "WP" Pocket Hammerless revolver, which dates to roughly the same time period. In a possible subtle reference to that, Fandorin is using a Webley semi-auto pistol in ''The Black City''.* AnachronicOrder: The entire series. The first 9 1/2 novels track Fandorin's life from 1876 to 1905--but Part II of ''The Diamond Chariot'' leaps back to 1878. The next book, ''Jade Rosary Beads'', fills in Fandorin's adventures in the 1880s. Then with ''All the World's a Stage'' Akunin jumps forward to 1911 to pick up the progress of Fandorin's life again.* AnachronismStew:** Akunin does this on occasion deliberately, for humorous effect. ''The Winter Queen'' has Fandorin using a telephone in Moscow in 1876--the same year that the telephone was being invented in the United States.** Of note, however, is the fact that Fandorin is attributed numerous timeline appropriate advances in criminalistic science, or at least incorporating them into his methods as soon as they're invented elsewhere, much to the chagrin of criminals who have never heard of fingerprint tracing or telephone eavesdropping before. He also keeps ahead of the times in other ways--for example, he's nearly the only person who has an automobile in a turn-of-the-century Moscow.* AntiVillain: Boris Akunin simply loves those (the latter part of his own pseudonym means "villain" in Japanese, but was redefined to mean "one who creates his own rules" as stated in ''The Diamond Chariot''), so many if not most villains have shades of this to some extent or another.* ArcNumber: ''11'' in ''All the World's a Stage''* ArcWords:** In every novel (with one exception) there's someone named Moebius. Among them there are a photographer, a RedShirt policeman, a notarius... So far Boris Akunin has refused to explain whether the name has any special meaning.** On a lesser scale, "Azazel" in ''The Winter Queen''. It doubled as a TitleDrop in original Russian.* AscendedFanboy: Anisiy Tulipov, towards Fandorin: he starts off as one of the many Fandorin fanboys among the younger police clerks in Moscow and eventually becomes his personal assistant and protege.* AssholeVictim:** Merchant Eropkin in ''The Jack of Spades''.** Subverted in ''The State Councellor'' -- everyone thinks of Hrapov as one, but he appears to be more of a WellIntentionedExtremist (with a bit of LawfulStupid mixed in).* AuthorAvatar: Mr. Freyby in ''The Coronation'', whose name is also a bit of BilingualBonus for the tech-savvy: if you try to type "Акунин" ("Akunin" in Cyrillic) on a standard [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:KB_Russian.svg Windows Russian]]/QWERTY keyboard with the language set to English instead of Russian you will get "Freyby".* AuthorAppeal: Boris Akunin, real-life Japanophile and professional translator of Japanese into Russian, referenced Japanese culture often, starting with Aono in ''Murder on the Leviathan'' and continuing with Masa, Fandorin's sidekick starting with ''The Death of Achilles''. But in ''The Diamond Chariot'', he takes it UpToEleven, recounting Fandorin's adventures in Japan, inserting lengthy discussions of Buddhism and the way of the ninja, and towards the end forgetting the plot for an entire chapter where Fandorin and Masa study at a ninja training camp.* AvoidingTheGreatWar: Towards the end of ''The Black City'', Fandorin is hired to investigate the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand before the conflict escalates. Unfortunately, he never makes it to Austria in time [[spoiler:because he is shot in the head by a treacherous ally]]. * BadassGrandpa: Xavery Grushin in ''The Winter Queen'' and especially ''Death of Achilles'', who also doubles as OldMaster, CoolOldGuy, RetiredBadass, and pretty much every other benevolent {{Mentor|s}} archetype.* BadGuyBar: The Katorga Tavern in the ''Death of Achilles''.* BattleButler: Masa fits this trope to the T.* BetrayalByInaction: In ''The State Councillor'', Erast Fandorin seems to make a deal with the BigBad, where they both agree to not interfere with each other. However, Fandorin knows something that could save the villain's life and, by not revealing it to him, betrays their deal and has him killed indirectly.* BigDamnHeroes: [[spoiler: Zurov]] in ''The Winter Queen'', Fandorin in ''The Jack of Spades''.* BigSecret: half the characters in ''Murder on the Leviathan'' either have this or seem like it (which is enough to throw off the investigation).* BittersweetEnding:** Fandorin's victories seldom come without a price. Also, in a more specific example, [[spoiler:in ''The Turkish Gambit'', Fandorin manages to stop the villain's EvilPlan before its final and most disastrous (for the Russians) stage could commence, the villain ends up shooting himself, and the war is won, but it is very much a PyrrhicVictory, lots of [[RedShirtArmy soldiers]] and several characters are dead, and Fandorin himself [[ButNowIMustGo leaves for Japan]]]].** In ''Murder on the Leviathan'' several of the main protagonists end up dead, one is gravely wounded, not counting ten victims of the murder that sets the whole plot in motion. The perpetrator is captured [[spoiler: but the plan was so meticulous that the mastermind is supposed to get off with a short prison term]], also, the goal of the perpetrator, [[spoiler: a fortune in gems]] is possibly lost forever.** In ''The Winter Queen'', Fandorin successfully solves the Azazel's case, but not before an assassin hired by his opponents makes and attempt on his life, [[spoiler:killing the woman he has married just hours before]].** In ''Decorator'', Fandorin manages to catch the extremely dangerous deranged serial killer (who happens to be [[spoiler:UsefulNotes/JackTheRipper himself]]) and then [[spoiler:executes him]] but is left by his lover, who says she cannot live with [[spoiler:a man who can kill defenseless captive]], even though she understands it was necessary. Also [[spoiler:Anisiy Tulipov and his sister]] are murdered by the killer.* BenevolentBoss: Xavery Grushin (see CoolOldGuy below) and Prince Dolgorukoi. [[spoiler:Every other boss who seems to fit the description at first either betrays the protagonist in the end, or is not there for long.]]* BodyguardCrush: [[spoiler:Zafar for Saadat-hanum]] in ''The Black City''.* BoisterousBruiser:** Ippolit Zurov (a somewhat darker example, given his BloodKnight and ByronicHero tendencies).** In ''The Black City'', Kara-Gasym [[spoiler:plays this straight until the subversion in the very end]].* TheBookCipher: Used by the German spy in ''The Death of Achilles''.* BornLucky: Fandorin himself. He suspects it's the universe's way of compensating for his father's very bad luck (and the resulting gambling debts). Another possible explanation is that whenplaying cards for the first time in ''The Winter Queen'', he bet his life against Zurov's... [[spoiler:and lost. As he was about to shoot himself, Zurov stopped him, and]] Fandorin seemingly got a blank check from Fortune since (it's pretty clear, though, that Zurov cheated, just like he did with the revolver Fandorin tried shooting himself with, as Zurov's servant removed the bullets without anyone noticing). One particularly notable occurrences of his luck is when he uses it to check a suspicious lottery: he doesn't win and deduces that the lottery must be rigged. [[spoiler:He's right.]]* ButNowIMustGo: Disgusted with the corruption of Tsarist government, Fandorin spurns an offer to be chief of police in Moscow and quits at the end of ''The State Counsellor''.* CallForward:** The main villain's prediction in ''The Winter Queen'', about the violent, destructive ways that modernization and change will manifest themselves in the world if they are not managed, comes true in Russia in 1917.** In ''The Death of Achilles'', Achimas muses how OutWithABang would be acceptable for a French leader but dishonorable for a Russian one. Fast-forward 17 years later, to the death of French president Félix Faure...** "....There are already too many empires in the world--any minute now [[UsefulNotes/WorldWarI they will all start wrangling with each other]]." Doronin in ''The Diamond Chariot''. He also foresees the collapse of those empires, as well as Japan's expansion into continental Asia and confrontation with Russia.** The last line of ''The Coronation'' is spoken by Mr. Freyby, who correctly guesses that Nicholas II will be "the last of the Romanovs".* CannotSpitItOut: Gintaro Aono in ''Murder on the Leviathan'', about [[spoiler: him being a doctor and his missing scalpel]]. This got him arrested, [[spoiler: though he was released pretty quickly thanks to Fandorin's intervention]].* CampGay: Lord Banville and Mr. Carr in ''The Coronation''. Especially Mr. Carr. Lord Banville borders on the MachoCamp.* CartwrightCurse* CatchPhrase: Not exactly, but Fandorin's characteristic way of reaching a EurekaMoment by deduction: "The suspect did so-and-so - that is one. The car was parked at the corner of this and that street - that is two..."* TheCavalry: A literal example in ''The Turkish Gambit'': Sobolev's UsefulNotes/{{cossacks}} arrive to rescue Fandorin and Varvara from the Bashi-bazouks.* TheChessmaster: Marie Sanfon in 'Murder on the Leviathan'.* CompletelyDifferentTitle: The original Russian title of ''The Winter Queen'' is ''Azazel'', a reference to the secret society at the center of the mystery. The English title is a random reference to a hotel Fandorin stays at.* ConMan: Momos.* CoolCar: What counts for one back in the 19th century...* CoolOldGuy: Prince Dolgurokoi. He gets a CrowningMomentOfAwesome when he shocks his fellow aristocrats by sitting next to a fire-breathing young revolutionary at a dinner and arguing politics, and at the end she comments 'what a nice old man', shocking Fandorin in turn.* CrimeAfterCrime* CultureClash:** Between the Japanese and the Europeans (including Russians).** Also, in ''The Death of Achilles'', between Anabaptist German refugees and Muslim Chechen natives.* CulturedBadass: Fandorin* CursedWithAwesome: Fandorin's luck at gambling.* CutShort: ** Possibly the fate of the series for English-speaking readers. The British publisher of the Fandorin series ominously refers to ''The Diamond Chariot'' as [[http://www.orionbooks.co.uk/books/the-diamond-chariot-hardback the "finale"]], despite the fact that two more books have been published in Russia with at least one more on the way.** After a six-year gap, an English translation of ''All The World's a Stage'' has been announced for October 2017.* DashedPlotLine:** The first half of part two of ''The Death of Achilles'' describes Achimas' life until his Moscow assignment, jumping many years between significant events in his youth, his turn to crime, and major assassination missions.** Also, the series as a whole, which follows Fandorin at the key points of his career and life.* ADayInTheLimelight: ''The Scarpea of the Baskakovs'' focuses on Anisiy Tulipov in the same manner as ''Literature/TheHoundOfTheBaskervilles'' focuses on Dr. Watson.* DeadAllAlong: Though never confirmed due to lack of OmniscientNarrator, it is heavily implied that [[spoiler:Emily]], recipient of [[spoiler:letters written by Reginald Milford-Stokes]] from ''Murder on the Leviathan'' is actually dead. There are several clues related to this death before the denouement.* DeathSeeker: a whole club of these in ''She-Lover of Death''... although their sincerity rather differs.* ADeathInTheLimelight: Fandorin is the POV character for most of the second part of ''The Diamond Chariot'', but three of his fellow investigators get their own POV chapters, in order, where each of them is killed off.* DeceasedFallGuyGambit The background of Achimas Welde from includes him being promised a million if he manages to save a SpoiledBrat from the noose. The case is clear-cut, with several bodies of little girls murdered in a NightmareFuel fashion found in the guy's basement. Achimas manages to arrange for the blame to be shifted onto the guy who reported the bodies, who, suspiciously, is nowhere to be found (of course he isn't. Achimas is no SpoiledBrat, and therefore isn't sloppy with hiding corpses).* DetectiveMole: [[spoiler: Brilling]] in ''The Winter Queen''.* {{Determinator}}: Achimas Welde, Mr. Green.* DiabolicalMastermind: Dr. Lind is Fandorin's personal ArchNemesis, much like Prof. Moriarty was to Holmes.* DisproportionateReward* DressingToDie: In novel ''She, Lover of Death'', [[spoiler: the title heroine, Columbina]], chooses her best dress to commit a ritualistic suicide in, which she believes to be a "marriage" to Death itself (or "himself", as she prefers to word it).* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Almost happens with Masa in ''The Black City''. He's not dead but critically wounded and stays out of the action most of the time.* DubNameChange: Charles d'Hevrais became Charles ''Paladin'' in Bromfield's translation of ''The Turkish Gambit'' (justified because [[spoiler:"d'Hevrais" (French "from Hevrais") is a huge giveaway of Charles' real identity, namely, Anwar Effendi (born in the town of Hevrais); it works well in Russian because the Cyrillic spelling of "d'Hevrais" and "Hevrais" are almost nothing alike but in English, it would be a ruinous spoiler]]). Later, Anisiy Tulpanov became Anisiy ''Tulipov'' (because "tulpan" is Russian for "tulip" and Anisiy's family is explained to have been named after that flower).* DuelToTheDeath: Colonel Lukan vs. D'Hevrais in ''The Turkish Gambit'', Fandorin vs. Bullcox in ''The Diamond Chariot''.* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The first three novels can read like this, especially ''The Winter Queen/Azazel'', because Fandorin has not yet acquired most of his quirks and methods he consistently shows from ''The Death of Achilles'' onward: at first, he does not stutter, his temples are not grey yet, he doesn't number his arguments with his signature jade rosary beads, has no mad ninja skills and no devoted Japanese butler, etc., etc. In short, he is just a regular young police investigator who just happens to have been BornLucky.* EvenEvilHasStandards: Revolutionary terrorist Mr. Green doesn't mind killing cops and government officials, but refused to kill a servant, since cops and officials were considered enemies of the people by the revolutionaries while servants were treated like 'the oppressed class'.* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Erast Fandorin. Point-of-view characters Tulipov and Ziukin comments how beautiful he is, and in ''The Coronation''m Fandorin quickly attracts attention of homosexual Mr. Carr.* EurekaMoment* {{Expy}}:** [[SignificantAnagram Miss Palmer]] for Literature/MissMarple.** Afanasi Ziukin (the point-of-view character in ''The Coronation'') for [[Literature/TheRemainsOfTheDay James Stevens]].** Several expies of historical figures (Sobolev for Skobelev for example) may also count as {{Historical Domain Character}}s.* EyeRemember: In ''He Lover of Death'', a serial killer punctured eyes of his victims to defy this trope. Fandorin told the cop that it is a superstition. [[spoiler:Then Fandorin understood that the cop is the killer because he stopped to puncture the eyes.]]* FalseReassurance: In ''The State Councellor'' BigBad gives to Fandorin a BreakingSpeech and then offers a choice: fight him, join him or just keep silent. Fandorin chooses to keep silent. Where is the catch? Fandorin holds information that could save the BigBad's life.* FemmeFatale: Amalia Bezhetskaya in ''The Winter Queen''. Marie Sanfon in ''Murder on the Leviathan''. [[spoiler: Dr.Lind, anyone?]]* FieryRedhead / [[spoiler:EvilRedhead]]: Ashlyn Calligan in "Dream Valley".* TheFilmOfTheBook: ''The Winter Queen'', ''Film/TheTurkishGambit'' and ''The State Counsellor'' were adapted either as short TV Series or movies. A new movie version of ''The Winter Queen'' is on its way.* FingerInTheMail: ''The Coronation'' [[spoiler:includes a subversion of the ransom demand variation; the hostage was killed immediately after the finger was cut off as part of the villain's EvilPlan]].* FirstGrayHair: Clarissa Stump has a moment like this in ''Murder on the Leviathan'', and it is implied to not be the first time. She rips it out but is immediately ashamed of herself being in denial about her age.* ForegoneConclusion: In the end of ''The Black City'', [[spoiler:Fandorin is shot in the head by a traitor. This takes place in 1914, and if you have read ''Altyn-Tolobas'', you should know that Erast's son and Nicholas Fandorin's father Alexander was born in 1920, making sure that Fandorin would have to stay alive for at least five more years]].* {{Foreshadowing}}: A lot; one example that stands out is in ''The Coronation'' when Fandorin muses frantically on what a character was about to shout out about Dr Lind before being cut off, with his examples being treated as throwaway lines - [[spoiler:"Is he a woman?"]]* FrenchJerk: Gustave Gauche.* FreudianExcuse: Lampshaded by Gustave Gauche and used by [[spoiler:Renier]] in ''Murder on the Leviathan''.* FrozenFlower: Fandorin turns into one of the rare male variety after the first book [[spoiler:when he witnesses his beloved wife blown to pieces]]. He then thaws again in ''Diamond Chariot'' [[spoiler:only to end up with the motionless body of another lover in his arms]]. His final thaw happens in ''All the World's a Stage''... and apparently lasts.* TheFundamentalist: Mother Kirilla in the ''Before the End of the World''.* FunetikAksent: German, folk Russian and Japanese.* FunnyForeigner: Gintaro Aono in ''Murder on the Leviathan'' seems to be this, partly because of his ludicrous accent; it's handily subverted in the parts of the novel that are written from ''his'' point of view, though. Also lampshaded, as he realizes that he can use his status of FunnyForeigner (a 'wild Asian' as he puts it) to appear in his loose and light traditional Japanese garb, much better suited to the scorching heat than woolen European suits all other upper-class men are obliged to wear.* GermanRussians: Fandorin is from a Russified German family (originally "[[TheVonTropeFamily Von Dorn]]").* GoodbyeCruelWorld: The scornfully nihilistic suicide note in the beginning of ''The Winter Queen''. The villain's confession in ''Murder on the Leviathan'' [[spoiler: seems to be this at first]].* GoodEyesEvilEyes: Achimas Welde has whitish, almost transparent eyes. (The TV adaptation gives him different colored eyes.)* GoodShepherd: Father Valery in ''A Lone Sail''. Mother Superior Fevronia was one, too.* GovernmentConspiracy:** [[spoiler:The clients behind General Sobolev's murder in ''The Death of Achilles'', who thus prevented him from starting a coup d'état.]]** Also in [[spoiler:''The State Counsellor'', when Fandorin approaches the new Governor-General of Moscow (and relative of the Tsar) with evidence of Pozharsky's crimes, only to find the Governor was well aware of everything he did]].* GratuitousJapanese, subverted: All conversations Fandorin and Masa have in Japanese are perfectly correct and appropriate. The author being a professional Japanese interpreter and a Japanophile helps.* GreatDetective: At one point, Fandorin is pitted against Literature/SherlockHolmes himself... [[spoiler:and both lose to Literature/ArseneLupin, although not without humiliating him]].* TheGunslinger: Erast Fandorin, also Washington Reed. Fandorin is "GunFu" type, Reed is "QuickDraw" type.* HateSink: Merchant Eropkin in ''The Jack of Spades''. The main antagonist is a sympathetic LovableRogue, but the reader can hate the greedy, cruel and hypocritical Eropkin.* HeManWomanHater: There's speculation that Dr Lind is this due to the fact that his gang only contains men. [[spoiler: However, see below under ThePowerOfLove and SamusIsAGirl.]]* HeroOfAnotherStory: ''She Lover of Death'' and ''He Lover of Death'' are two completely separate mysteries being investigated by Fandorin at the same time.* HeterosexualLifePartners: Fandorin and Masa.* HistoricalDomainCharacter: The books feature a lot of these, usually renaming them (e.g. General Skobelev becomes General Sobolev). The highest concentration of these is probably in ''The Death of Achilles'' and ''The Coronation''.* HistoricalInJoke: Many, many of them.* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler: What happens to Fandorin at the end of the first novel.]]* HeroicFireRescue: By Fandorin, as recounted by Angelina in ''The Decorator''. ''Before the End of the World'' also features one.* {{Homage}}:** To many, many real-life and fictional Victorian-age characters and settings. There is a "Fandorin and Sherlock Holmes versus Arsene Lupin" short story, a "Fandorin versus Jack the Ripper" novel, a "Fandorin comes to the Old West" novella...** Pozharsky's full name (Gleb Georgievich Pozharsky) is notable similar to [[Series/TheMeetingPlaceCannotBeChanged Zheglov's]] full name (Gleb Georgievich Zheglov).* HonorBeforeReason: George Devyatkin in ''All the World's a Stage''. [[spoiler: Subverted: Devyatkin is a villain and uses HonorBeforeReason to screw up Fandorin's plans without being suspected.]]* HowWeGotHere:** ''The Coronation'' opens with a climactic shootout between Fandorin and Dr. Lind.** To some extent, also the second part of ''Death of Achilles'' that explains the events leading the death of General Sobolev that set the whole first part in motion.* IfICantHaveYou:** When the passengers in ''Murder on the Leviathan'' start fighting over the Indian shawl MacGuffin ([[spoiler:which is actually a map showing the location of a treasure valuable enough to double the size of the Royal Navy, pay for a French revanche against Germany, or wipe out Russia's foreign debts]]) it's heavily implied that Fandorin deliberately let it blow out of the window to be lost at sea.** A straighter example can be found in the latest book, ''All the World's a Stage'', where [[spoiler:the villain realizes that he cannot win the love and respect of the woman he is obsessed with and decides to kill her and everyone else in her actor troupe in a suicide bombing]].* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: [[spoiler:Brilling]] in ''The Winter Queen''.* IngestingKnowledge: Samsonite is a chemical invented by Samson Fandorin, an ancestor of Erast Fandorin, in "Quest". Drinking it reforms connections in the brain in such a way that the user acquires new information - for example, "hears" a message from Fandorin. It can also contain general knowledge (in the novel, Russian language and culture).* InsufferableGenius: Pete Bull, Fandorin's brilliant mechanic and engineer in ''Planet Water''.* InWhichATropeIsDescribed: Chapter titles in ''The Winter Queen'' and the first half of ''The Diamond Chariot''.* ItWillNeverCatchOn: In the second (1878) part of ''The Diamond Chariot'', Fandorin regards the notion that Japan could transform itself into a great power in thirty years as "simply laughable".* IWasJustPassingThrough* IOweYouMyLife: Gintaro Aono in ''Murder on the Leviathan'', much to Fandorin's amusement. Later, and more permanently, Masa.* ItWorksBetterWithBullets: In the first novel, Count Zurov tricks Fandorin into committing a suicide of honor. However, it turns out to be a SecretTestOfCharacter (whether Fandorin would really go as far as shooting himself), since Zurov's butler removes all bullets from the revolver while everybody's looking the other way.* {{Jerkass}}: Colonel Lukan in ''The Turkish Gambit''* KarmicDeath: [[spoiler: Pozharsky]] in ''The State Counsellor''* KnifeNut: Deadeye in ''He Lover of Death''. An AxCrazy to boot.* LargeHam: Ippolit Zurov and Prince Pozharsky. Turned UpToEleven by Nikita Mikhalkov who plays the latter in the movie adaptation.* LaResistance: The "Combat Group" and other revolutionaries from ''The State Counsellor''. Notably, the [[TheRevolutionWillNotBeVilified revolution is portrayed in slightly gray shades]] here.* LifeWillKillYou: In the first Erast Fandorin novel, Count Zurov tells the protagonist about a friend he had once, an army officer who participated in the most brutal fights but died in the peacetime of an accidental alcohol poisoning.* LoveMakesYouDumb: happens to Fandorin in ''All the World's a Stage''** LoveMakesYouEvil: happens to the villain in the same novel.* MacGuffin: [[spoiler: The Indian shawl]] in ''Murder on the Leviathan''.* MadScientist: Doctor Blank in ''The Winter Queen''.* MadeOfIron: Mr. Green.* MamaBear: Saadat Validbekova in ''The Black City''. Gets a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome beating the hell out of the man who kidnapped her son.* TheManBehindTheMan: [[spoiler: Marie Sanfon behind Lieutenant Renier]] in ''Murder on the Leviathan''.* ManipulativeBastard:** [[spoiler: Prince Pozharsky]] in ''The State Counsellor''.** Achimas Welde in his Belgian flashback.* MarketBasedTitle:** 'Azazel' was renamed to ''The Winter Queen'', partially to avoid religious tensions on US market.** ''Leviafan'' was initially directly translated as ''Leviathan'', but for the paperback was changed to ''Murder on the Leviathan'' in a possible case of ViewersAreMorons. There were already several books titled ''Leviathan'' on the English market, so this was likely done to avoid confusion that could hamper sales.* MasterOfDisguise: Fandorin himself, but also Momos in ''The Jack of Spades'' and Achimas Welde in ''Death of the Achilles''.* MeaningfulName:** Subverted with Mr Green of ''The State Counsellor''; he's a synaesthesiac, so you might think he's called after the colour he perceives himself to be - but in fact he sees himself as grey, and his ''NomDeGuerre'' is just a contraction of his real surname Grinberg, as well as after [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignacy_Hryniewiecki Ignacy Hryniewiecki]], the assassin of Tsar Alexander II, [[BilingualBonus whose surname is written "Grinevitski" in Russian]].** The author's pseudonym, "Akunin", is spelled in Japanese as '悪人', which means 'an evil man' or 'villain'. Make of this what you will. Explained in an AuthorFilibuster by the antagonist in ''The Diamond Chariot'', which [[CardCarryingVillain openly admits to being evil]] and is inclined to [[DiscussedTrope elaborate why]]. According to said villain, a true "Akunin" is the embodiment the kind of evil that [[WorthyOpponent commands respect]] due to being [[NobleDemon honorable]], [[MagnificentBastard ingenious]] [[EvenEvilHasStandards and, above all, never petty]].* MilkmanConspiracy: The sinister [[FauxSymbolism Azazel]] conspiracy in ''The Winter Queen'' turns out be [[spoiler:perpetrated by an international charity network for gifted children and the mastermind behind it is the sweet old Lady Astair]].* MoodWhiplash: ''The Jack of Spades'', the first novella of ''Special Assignments'', is a lighthearted comic mystery about a pair of con men/thieves. ''The Decorator'', the second novella, is about a vicious SerialKiller.* MotherRussiaMakesYouStrong: Fandorin runs into this stereotype every now and then; he is a walking subversion, though. Then there is Ippolit Zurov (who ''could'' be intelligent and gallant, but often ''isn't'').* MotiveRant* MrFanservice: D'Hevrais in ''The Turkish Gambit''* MyCountryRightOrWrong: Fandorin himself has this to some extent, as do some other characters otherwise critical of the Tsar's government and policies. On the other hand, averted with [[spoiler:Anwar Effendi, the Ottoman super-spy, who is perfectly willing to sacrifice his own country for sake of stopping autocratic Russia and winning time for the liberal powers of the West]].* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: ** A huge scary thug in ''The Winter Queen'' is named John '''Morbid'''.** {{Invoked| Trope}} in ''All the World's a Stage'' - theatrical actor who plays the villains uses the stage name '''Mephistov'''.* {{Ninja}}: Fandorin and [[spoiler:the Tamba Clan in ''Diamond Chariot'', including his own son]].* NoPartyLikeADonnerParty: this is the backstory of [[spoiler:Caliban]].* NobleBigotWithABadge: Gustave Gauche, [[spoiler: though the 'noble' part failed to stand up to the test in the end]].* NotSoDifferent: Fandorin and Anwar Effendi.* ObfuscatingStupidity: [[spoiler:"Renata Kleber"]] in ''Murder on the Leviathan''.* OfCorsetsSexy: The young, naive Fandorin of the first book buys a male corset after hearing its snake-oil claims of improving health... which technically turns out to be true, as it later saves his life by deflecting a knife. In a SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}}, Ivan Brilling then decides that it was a brilliant precaution for Fandorin to wear it on a dangerous job and that the entire Russian police force should be issued them...* OfficerAndAGentleman: Several in ''The Turkish Gambit'', but especially Sobolev.* OldMaster:** Momochi Tamba, the head ninja in ''The Diamond Chariot''.** Fandorin himself becomes one by the time of ''The Black City'', where he pretty much wastes everyone (who doesn't get a drop on him from behind ''and'' tie him up head to toe) with his bare hands at the age of 59.* OutlawCouple: Momos and Mimi in ''The Jack of Spades''.* OutWithABang: {{Invoked| Trope}} and {{Exploited| Trope}} in ''The Death of Achilles'' [[spoiler:with Achimas' intricate murder of General Sobolev]].* PaintingTheMedium: Newspaper articles are shown as two columns of text. Gintaro Aono's segments in ''Leviathan'' are printed sideways, suggesting the way in which Japanese is written and/or Aono's FishOutOfWater alien worldview among the Europeans.* PickedFlowersAreDead: In ''She Lover of Death'', Columbina feeds the flowers that Cherubino gives her on their first [[NotADate Not-Date]] to a horse, saying that she has no need for "flower corpses".* PlayingCardMotifs:** Early in ''The Jack of Spades'', the eponymous conman goes into a prolonged InternalMonologue about the symbolism of the nickname he picked for himself.** In ''He Lover of Death'', all Khitrovka gangs seem to be structured like card decks: the gang leader is referred as King, his girlfriend is the Queen and his right-hand man is the Jack, while the regular gang members are spread out between ten and six (from most important to most expendable, respectively). The Ace is a King whose gang dominates the entirety of Moscow underworld.*** This has some basis in fact: "shesterka" (the card six) is a [[TheMafiya fenya]] term for "stooge, lackey, expendable man".* PocketProtector: In ''The Winter Queen'', Erast's life is saved when an attacker's knife is turned away by his corset.* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Izhitzov in ''The Decorator''. Suverted when the book makes clear that his opinions are shared by the society around him and because he stops antagonizing Fandorin shortly after making those opinions clear [[spoiler: when he becomes an AssholeVictim]].* PosthumousSibling: Fandorin has had two known sons: [[spoiler:"Captain Rybnikov", revealed to be Fandorin and Midori Tamba's son in ''Diamond Chariot'',]] committed suicide in 1905, while his first and only legitimate heir, Alexander Fandorin, was born in 1921, though neither he, nor Fandorin himself ever learned that even had an older brother.* ThePowerOfLove: Very cynically exploited by [[spoiler:Dr. Lind, whose multi-national gang consists exclusively of men who are madly in love with ''her'']].* PrematurelyGreyHaired: Downplayed. Fandorin's temples go completely gray by the end of the first novel, when he was just 22, and remain so until the end of his life.* ProfessionalKiller: Achimas Welde in ''The Death of Achilles''.* PublicDomainCharacter:** Erast runs into Literature/SherlockHolmes and Literature/ArseneLupin during the course of his adventures.** And ''Comedy/Tragedy'' reveals that Theatre/{{H|amlet}}oratio was a Von Dorn [[spoiler: who orchestrated most of the events of the play behind the scenes]]* {{Reconstruction}}: Of Russian detective fiction.* RussianRoulette: Fandorin always wins this one. Notably the first book claims that it's actually ''American'' Roulette, and only became renamed thanks to the events therein...* SamusIsAGirl: ''The Coronation''* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Washington Reed at the end of ''Dream Valley''.* SerialKiller: ''The Decorator''.* ShoutOut: At least several phrases and mannerisms used by Achimas Welde in ''Death of Achilles'' are taken almost verbatim from Creator/FrederickForsyth's ''Literature/TheDayOfTheJackal''.* SpeechImpediment: Fandorin started stuttering after the first book; the stutter [[LetsGetDangerous disappeared in the more critical moments]], unnerving his conversants.* SpyDrama: ''The Turkish Gambit'', ''The Diamond Chariot''.* SpyFiction: When this trope applies (see above, plus ''Death of Achilles'') it is pure Martini, or rather Champagne. Pretty dry though.* StartsWithASuicide: ''The Winter Queen''* StarCrossedLovers: [[AntiVillain Anti-Villains]] Mr. Green and Needle in ''The State Counsellor''* TheStoic: Several villains fall into this area, notably Achimas Welde from ''The Death of Achilles'' and Mr. Green from ''The State Counsellor''. Fandorin himself is one compared to other characters, but tends to break from EmotionsVsStoicism much more easily than the villains.* StrangersOnATrainPlotMurder: "One Tenth Percent" from ''Jade Rosary Beads''* StreetUrchin: Senka Skorik in ''He Lover of Death''* StressVomit: Subverted in ''The Turkish Gambit'', when Varya throws up after spending days bandaging the wounded and, to top it off, learning that her fiance attempted suicide. She thinks that it's just stress but it turns out that she contracted typhoid fever, putting her out of commission for weeks.* StrictlyFormula, InUniverse: In ''All the World's a Stage'', Director Stern admits that writing plays based on the same ten archetypes is the key to his success. He even has a permanent cast, each of whom exactly matches one of said archetypes (including himself).* StutteringIntoEloquence: Erast. His stutter, although noticeable is very slight and never prevents him to speak precisely and eloquently. Also subverted, as lack of stutter usually signifies that Erast is close to solving a mystery. It can also mean that he's really, ''[[TranquilFury really angry]]''.* StylisticSuck: Caliban's poem about meat-seeking dead sailors in ''She-Lover of Death'', while quite creepy, is very much this.* SuddenSequelDeathSyndrome: Many times: [[spoiler: Zurov in ''Turkish Gambit'', Grushin and Sobolev in ''The Death of Achilles'', Tulipov in ''The Decorator''...]] Boris Akunin loves this trope.* TheSummation: But of course. Also, subverted in ''Murder on the Leviathan'' when [[InspectorJavert Gustave Gauche]] gave just such a summation when he thought he solved the case (with 1/3rd of the book still to go)... [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome only to be completely and thoroughly overturned by Erast Fandorin]].* SwitchingPOV:** ''Murder on the Leviathan'' cycles through several different POV characters.** ''The Death of Achilles'' is divided into two parts. The first part is Fandorin's investigation (using Fandorin as the POV character, for the first time since ''The Winter Queen''). The second part is from Achimas's (the villain's) POV, in which we learn his life story and then [[PerspectiveFlip go through the events of the first part from his POV]]. Then there's a climactic chapter that switches back and forth between Fandorin and Achimas's POV as they have their confrontation.** In the first (1905) part of ''The Diamond Chariot'' the POV switches back and forth between Fandorin and the Japanese spy he's chasing. Also happens in the second (1878) part, see ADeathInTheLimelight above.* SympathyForTheDevil: Fandorin towards Momos in ''The Jack of Spades''* TakingYouWithMe:** Subverted at the eleventh hour in ''The Winter Queen''. [[spoiler:Lady Astair means to do this at first, but then takes pity on Fandorin and lets him go in the end.]]** Played straight in ''The State Counsellor''. [[spoiler:Needle blowing herself (and mortally wounded Green) up, taking ManipulativeBastard Prince Pozharsky with them.]]* TearOffYourFace: ''The Diamond Chariot'', twice.* TechnicalPacifist: Washington Reed.* TenLittleMurderVictims: A variation: the French detective in ''Murder on the Leviathan'' was sure that the murderer he was chasing after was somewhere on the large ship, and made sure to have his primary suspects assigned to the same salon to keep an eye on them. Then played straight when ''one of those suspects'' was killed too.* TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse: The Decorator. Also, Momos, when not in disguise, looks very plain and unremarkable.* TheyWereHoldingYouBack: The Decorator tries to do this to Fandorin and his loved ones [[spoiler:but thankfully fails]].* ThievesCant: Fenya crops up every now and again; not surprising, given the series' subject matter. ''The Death of Achilles'' features Xavery Grushin, an undercover police investigator, gaining the trust of a Moscow gang by speaking fluent Fenya.* ThinkingTic: From ''Special Assignments'' onwards, Fandorin acquires a habit of grabbing his jade rosary beads and telling them in silence while contemplating.* TogetherInDeath: [[spoiler: Mr. Green and Needle]] in ''The State Counsellor''* TranslationTrainwreck: The titles of the eight and ninth novels were rendered less than elegantly in English. In the original Russian they translate to ''Mistress of Death'' and ''Lover of Death''. Instead they were published, oddly, as ''She Lover of Death'' and ''He Lover of Death''.* TreacherousAdvisor: [[spoiler: Brilling]] in the first novel; Fandorin still ended up borrowing from his deductive method and manner of speech, though.* TrivialTitle: In the English-language market, anyway. ''The Winter Queen'' is a random reference to a hotel Fandorin stays at while in London. (As noted elsewhere on this page the novel is titled ''Azazel'' in Russian.)* TykeBomb: In the first book, [[spoiler: the orphanages network]] is making them in numbers. Notable exemplars are Anvar Effendi and [[spoiler: Brilling]].* UndesirablePrize: Fandorin won a huge ugly wooden clock that won't fit into his room in a lottery, much to his own horror. [[spoiler: [[ChekhovsGun It saved his life.]]]]* UnreliableNarrator: several in ''Murder on the Leviathan'' (not quite narrators in 3 out 5 cases, but the perspective shifts to them and the unreliability is there), but especially [[ThroughTheEyesOfMadness Lord Milford-Stokes]].* VillainousLegacy: The legacy of TheConspiracy from the first novel and of its mastermind comes back to bite Fandorin at least twice later on in his career: the BigBad of the second novel turns out to be a student of said mastermind, and the assassin in the fourth novel is the same guy that tried killing Fandorin twice in the first book... and he's still willing to fulfill that contract.* VomitingCop: Fandorin himself, on his first crime scene and also in the opening scene of ''The Decorator''.* TheWatson: Anisiy Tulipov* WellIntentionedExtremist: Boris Akunin loves this trope.** The BigBad of the first novel, [[spoiler:Lady Astair]] definitely qualifies.** As does [[spoiler:Anwar Effendi]] from the second novel, what with being the former's pupil.** The revolutionary Mr. Green may also qualify.** Also Commisar Khurtinsky, orchestrator of the [[spoiler:Sobolev's]] assassination. [[GreyAndGrayMorality To make matters more complicated]], also [[spoiler:Sobolev]] himself.** [[spoiler:Napoleon]] in ''Planet Water'' is one of these, too. He even mentions [[spoiler:Lady Astair]] and her organization and asks if Fandorin ever felt sorry for thwarting their plans.* WholeEpisodeFlashback: Used in Part II of ''The Death of Achilles'', in which the life history and criminal career of the antagonist is recounted. This may be a nod to Literature/SherlockHolmes novels, which often used this trope.* {{Yakuza}}: ''The Diamond Chariot''. Masa is a former criminal, whose life and honor Fandorin accidentally saved.* YouGotMurder: The ending of the first novel.----

Storms drench area
NEW ULM – Thunderstorms and lightning startled area residents early Wednesday morning and dumped nearly four inches of rain in the New Ulm area.
One casualty of the lightning was a very old catalpa tree in the 900 block of North German Street.
"The tree was hit by lightning. sometime between 12:30 and 1 a.m. It shook the house," said Maggie Schwab. "We smelled burning plastic. A neighbor across the street said he saw flames and smoke. It was so stormy, we went into the basement during much of the lightning and thunder that lasted for what seemed like an hour."
Lightning blew recessed lights in the kitchen out of their sockets, Schwab said. Her front porch and yard were covered with pieces of tree bark, small branches and leaves. A large tree branch was split in the storm and lay suspended at a 90-degree angle to the tree trunk.
The tree protected Schwab about a dozen years ago when a drunk driver hit three parked cars nearby, jumped the curb and hit the tree.
"The tree just keeps on growing. Now, two of us can't get our arms all the way around the tree trunk," she said. "It's got beautiful wood and beautiful flowers,"
Catalpa is occasionally used as tonewood in guitars. The trees flower with large white blooms in spring or early summer, and they drop dark-brown bean pods in the fall.
Schwab was unsure on Wednesday whether the tree could be saved.
Several other trees in New Ulm were reported hit by lightning in the storm.
Rain fall
New Ulm received approximately 3 3/4 inches of rain Wednesday, bringing the total for June to 7.6 inches, compared to an average of 4.19 inches for the month.
The National Weather Service (NWS) reported two to six inches of rain fell overnight in Brown, Blue Earth and Nicollet counties, causing flooded roads and fields, rising rivers and streams.
The Cottonwood River at New Ulm was measured at 12.4 feet at 6 a.m. Wednesday, according to the NWS. It was forecast to crest at 12.5 feet later in the morning. At 11 feet, flood waters begin to impact low-lying areas and some roads along the river.
The Brown County Highway Department closed County Road 30, west of Highway 4. It also closed County Road 8 at 360th Street Tuesday (the old Minnesota River bridge) due to high river levels.
University of Minnesota, Nicollet County Extension Educator Christian Lillienthal said up to 22 inches or more of rain has fallen since the growing season began.
"Our area and to the south received lots more rain than we'd like to," Lillienthal said. "Swan Lake is much larger than normal. Storms often follow rivers, pulling up moisture from bodies of water. But commodity markets continue to drop. The prices don't represent what's going on around here."
South Central College Agriculture Instructor Wayne Schoper said temperatures in the 80s in the coming days should help crop development catch up to normal if it quits raining. "Certainly the drought is over with replenished subsoil moisture. I heard no hail reports," he said.

Oil and gas jobs in South Texas are abundant. From gate guards to industry sales reps and engineers, there's a flood of new people running the roads of South Texas and more open positions than companies can find qualified people for. The Eagle Ford Shale oil boom has added oil and gas jobs in South Texas at a rate no one could have predicted.
Pioneer Natural Resources, an Irving, Texas-based driller, has hired 400 people in the South Texas area in the last two years, says Joey Hall, vice president in charge of Pioneer's South Texas Asset Team.
About 75% or a little more of Pioneer's workers are located in the field and contractors employ another 1,000 people who help build rigs and move crude. [Read more…]

Sir Alex Ferguson's team benefited from a controversial penalty decision at Old Trafford as Shaun Derry was dismissed after being harshly penalized for a foul on Ashley Young.
Manchester United took advantage of a controversial penalty decision to secure a 2-0 victory against QPR and move closer towards retaining the Premier League title.
Wayne Rooney scored from the penalty spot after Shaun Derry was very harshly sent off having been penalized for a challenge on Ashley Young in the box. The England winger appeared to be in an offside position as he looked to receive a Rooney through ball.
Paul Scholes added a second after the break to wrap up three points and pile the pressure on Manchester City, who face Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium later on Sunday.
If there is one area QPR must improve in order to enhance its survival prospects it is its disciplinary record, having been shown six red cards in the Premier League prior to his match, but it will justifiably argue that it was extremely hard done by when Derry was dismissed before 15 minutes had passed at Old Trafford.
Not only did Young fall after the slightest of touches as he turned to latch on to a pass that seemed to be heading into the arms of goalkeeper Paddy Kenny, but the winger had also begun his run in an offside position. The flag stayed down, referee Lee Mason pointed to the spot and dismissed Derry, and Rooney stroked home the resulting penalty kick.
In Manchester City's eyes, of course, the decision will only serve to further illustrate what Patrick Vieira claimed was favorable refereeing received by United at home. In truth, Ferguson's team was already well on top, having spent the opening quarter of an hour camped in the QPR half, and perhaps the most damaging aspect of the incident will be the Hoops' loss of Derry for three matches.
United continued to probe, with QPR's only real chance of the half coming when Adel Taarabt robbed Rafael of the ball close to David de Gea's goal only to be denied a shot on target by Jonny Evans' excellent block. Rooney tested Kenny with a well-executed chip from 20 yards that the Republic of Ireland international did well to retrieve.
It is difficult to remember Hughes looking as angry as he did when the halftime whistle was blown – at least since Michael Owen snatched a dramatic late winner when the Welshman visited Old Trafford as City manager – but he managed to restrain himself from approaching the officials as the teams departed down the tunnel.
One decision did go his side's way early in the second period, as Welbeck's celebrations were correctly cut short by the linesman when he converted Antonio Valencia's cross from close range.
United proceeded to regularly carve QPR open in the second half but struggled to find a clinical edge to its build-up play. Rafael was denied by Kenny from point blank range and Welbeck could not slide a shot past the former Sheffield United goalkeeper when played in by Rooney.
In the end, an experienced head once again proved the difference. Scholes' impact since his return from retirement has been enormous, and one of the keys to United's rise to the top of the table, and he proved his value once again here by slamming home a 20-yard shot to cap off a virtuoso performance in midfield.
Michael Carrick had been similarly imposing alongside Scholes and almost topped his teammate's effort to make it 3-0. His spectacular shot from 30 yards seemed to be flying into the top corner only to hit Kenny's right post.
Not too long ago United might have viewed a match like this as an opportunity to improve its potentially important goal difference but that statistic is beginning to feel less and less relevant as the Red Devils edge closer to a 20th league title.Follow GOAL.COM USA on
