A Dead Djinn in Cairo by P. Djèlí Clark

4.0

Wow, wow, wow! This was so good! The writing style is so atmospheric and vivid I could swear I'm in that alternate Cairo with Fatma. Loved the mythology and the fantasy infused in the story as well! Only reason I'm not giving this 5 stars is that the ending felt a little safe, anticlimactic if you will. Nevertheless, this was an amazing novella and I would love to read more stories in the same setting!
