Sci-Fi & Speculative
by Mathilde Montier · Dead Djinn Universe series
Cairo, 1912: in a world where the veil between the human and djinn realms was torn open decades earlier, Agent Fatma el-Sha'arawi of the Ministry of Alchemy investigates an imposter claiming to be al-Jahiz, the man who brought magic back to Egypt. What begins as a case of fraud spirals into conspiracy, as secret societies, mechanical djinn, and stolen power converge. A dazzling blend of alternate history, murder mystery, and steampunk-inflected fantasy.
