| | | Download sample file | Aleksei Nikolaevich Tolstoi (January 10, 1883 (December 29, 1882 (O.S.)) - February 23, 1945), nicknamed the Comrade Count, was a Soviet Russian writer who wrote in many genres but specialized in science fiction and historical novels.
He has published two lengthy historical novels, Peter the First (1929-45), in which he sought to liken Peter's policies to those of Stalin, and The Road to Calvary (1922-41) tracking the period from 1914 to 1919 including the Russian Civil War. He has also written several plays.
Aleksei Tolstoi is usually credited with having produced some of the earliest (and best) science fiction in the Russian language. His novels Aelita (1923) about a journey to Mars and The Hyperboloid of Engineer Garin (1927) have gained immense public popularity, the former having spawned an pioneering sci-fi movie in 1924. Besides Aelita (1924), a number of other movies released in the USSR are based on Tolstoi's novels.
