Djèlí Clark to develop his unique world further.In A Master of Djinn, an imposter claiming to be Al-Jahiz (the sorcerer whose researches led to the the event that brought the djinn and other supernatural entities into the world).Unlike the pacifist original, this would-be Al-Jahiz is set to destroy Egyptian civilization - beginning with the disruption of a peace accord that could actually bring about world peace.Agent Fatma, who prefers to work alone, is saddled with an eager top-of-her-class rookie, Agent Hadia Abdel Hafez.Now she has to work out a unique murder (wherein the victims were burned to death without the flame harming anything else in the room - not even their clothes and accessories).Meanwhile, one of her best sources of information seems to be transforming into something else.And her friend Siti is revealed to be something more than a friend (which is not the only revelation on her part).Plus, there's that imposter...Clark's 1912 steampunk Cairo is a genuinely unique creation, and his characters are fresh and as intriguing as the mysteries they have to unravel.A Master of Djinn is an excellent work and well worth your time.Highly recommended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 3.75/5 , incredible visuals but extremely slow paced . *by S***N on Reviewed in India 🇮🇳 on 28 February 2023* Set in an alternate version of Cairo , the story follows the adventures of main lead Fatma who is a special agent in the Ministry of Alchemy, Enchantments and Supernatural entities.--> The fully fleshed out characters and the incredibly unique world-building was simply too good.--> The pacing however was extremely slow. No doubt , the author should be lauded for the descriptive writing which was so beautiful and vivid that I was able to visualise literally everything that was written in the page.Unfortunately, these descriptions slowed down the pacing. I had to skim through a lot to get to the part where the plot seemed moving.--> If this one above mentioned flaw doesn’t bother you, then you must check this book out . The diverse characters, unique world and an extremely strong lead is worth it. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Diverse characters, great world building, but slow reading *by E***L on Reviewed in Germany 🇩🇪 on 7 December 2021* I was really excited to read this one and at the beginning, it got better and better. The author does great world building, with a rich and deeply saturated background of characters, stories and the whole book universe. I was thrilled to learn there is really great and diverse representation of gay characters, people of different religions, ethnicities etc. The story itself is not bad - it took a while to take off at some places and in the end, one thing came after the other very quickly and the relevations were not as exciting as I hoped for.Two things I found unfortunate: First of all, as someone not so versed in the cultural context the book is set in, I lost a lot of richness by not knowing some special words that were used. e.g. religious wording, words from another language, traditional clothing and accessories that were described but that did not mean anything at all to me. The author would do well to describe those - at best with a short sentence directly in the book, or at least with a glossary.Second of all, and this I cannot pin down, but it did really annoy me - i found it hard/slow to read. Its not like the sentences are overly complicated, but their constellation is at times --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/317345924-a-master-of-djinn](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/317345924-a-master-of-djinn) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-04-26*
