A Dead Djinn in Cairo: A Tor.Com Original (Dead Djinn Universe)

This story reminds me a lot of the movie Hellboy. Magic, djinn, angels(?), otherworldly beings, the threat of total destruction of our world, doom, despair. It was interesting but just OK.

5.4/10

Okay book, weak compared to the novel which expounds on everything better. If i read this first I might have not started the novel which is really good.

That into to a new world.

P. Djèlí Clark certainly delivers! After devouring “Ring Shout” a few months ago, I’ve been craving more of Clark’s unique blend of supernatural horror and social commentary, delivered through a window into history. In less than 40 pages, Clark laid an impressive foundation to explore in future installments (including a full-length novel)!

I was totally invested and I can't wait to revisit this world. Fatma is vibe, in her exotic english suit...she had me locked in after this story. I need another adventure with Siti 🤣🤣🤣 Definitely continuing on to the next book.
