A review by delmaamoun
A Dead Djinn in Cairo by P. Djèlí Clark
4.0
3.5 stars..
I absolutely adore the strange magical world overlayed on top of early 20th century cairo.. it’s beautiful and masterfully crafted.
The story itself was predictable and the writing style a bit boring, trying to seem like a wordsmith and failing.
I’ll keep reading this series though and I hope the writer’s style improves with practice, and there are more than a few references a cairene can read about and smile.
I recommend it and even if not liked, it’s only a couple of hours of reading
