Resumen del Editor
2021 NYPL Best Books of the Year
2022 Nebula Awards - Winner
"[Narrator Suehyla] El-Attar expertly creates a vibrant version of Cairo that captures a heady blend of the cosmopolitan and the supernatural that will win many new fans." (AudioFile Magazine)
Nebula, Locus, and Alex Award-winner P. Djèlí Clark returns to his popular alternate Cairo universe for his fantasy novel debut, A Master of Djinn
Cairo, 1912: Though Fatma el-Sha’arawi is the youngest woman working for the Ministry of Alchemy, Enchantments and Supernatural Entities, she’s certainly not a rookie, especially after preventing the destruction of the universe last summer.
So when someone murders a secret brotherhood dedicated to one of the most famous men in history, al-Jahiz, Agent Fatma is called onto the case. Al-Jahiz transformed the world 40 years ago when he opened up the veil between the magical and mundane realms, before vanishing into the unknown. This murderer claims to be al-Jahiz, returned to condemn the modern age for its social oppressions. His dangerous magical abilities instigate unrest in the streets of Cairo that threaten to spill over onto the global stage.
Alongside her Ministry colleagues and a familiar person from her past, Agent Fatma must unravel the mystery behind this imposter to restore peace to the city- or face the possibility he could be exactly who he seems....
A Master of Djinn is poised to launch P. Djèlí Clark’s SFF career to new heights as the highly-anticipated debut listeners are clamoring for.

"Listeners will be charmed by dashing, bowler-hat-wearing, janbiya-carrying Fatma el-Sha’arawi in book one of Clark’s Dead Djinn Universe series.... At times wry, often witty, [Suehyla] El-Attar’s delivery is an anchoring force from which a multitude of mortal and mystical characters emerge." (Booklist)
Reseñas de la Crítica
“A clever, wickedly fun steampunk mystery with an excellent balance of humor and heart. I loved it.” (S. A. Charkaborty, internationally best-selling author of The City of Brass)
“A delightful whodunnit full of sly commentary and a wonderfully lived-in steampunk Cairo. The perfect read when I needed a break from this world to enjoy one wholly made from Clark's enviable imagination.” (Rebecca Roanhorse, Hugo and Nebula Award winner, author of Trail of Lightning and Star Wars: Resistance Reborn)
“A Master of Djinn has all the tricky twists I want in a police procedural and all the djinns, magic and wonder I want from fantasy.” (Mary Robinette Kowal, Hugo and Nebula award-winning author of The Calculating Stars)

Historia
You define life or it defines you. In Shawn Speakman’s case, it was both. Lacking health insurance and diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2011, Shawn quickly accrued a massive medical debt that he did not have the ability to pay. That’s when New York Times best-selling author Terry Brooks offered to donate a short story that Shawn could sell to help alleviate those bills—and suggested he ask the same of his other writer friends. Unfettered is the result: An anthology built in order to relieve that debt, featuring short stories by some of the best fantasy writers in the genre.

The Jazz Age is in full swing, but Casiopea Tun is too busy cleaning the floors of her wealthy grandfather’s house to listen to any fast tunes. Nevertheless, she dreams of a life far from her dusty small town in southern Mexico. A life she can call her own. Yet this new life seems as distant as the stars, until the day she finds a curious wooden box in her grandfather’s room. She opens it - and accidentally frees the spirit of the Mayan god of death, who requests her help in recovering his throne from his treacherous brother.

Alchemy allows the library to deliver the content of the greatest works of history instantly - but the personal ownership of books is expressly forbidden.

Paksenarrion was the finest paladin her world would ever see. But Paksenarrion could never have become a fighter at all had it not been for he who had come before: Gird, the liberator, who taught his people that they could fight - and win - against their Mage-born rulers. And after Gird came one more: Luap, Gird's sworn follower and the king's half-breed bastard. Riven by internal conflict, Luap dare not lie and cannot tell the truth, nor face the future.

The desolate canyons of Alcoro - and the people desperate enough to hide there - couldn’t be more different from the opulent glass palace and lush forests of Moquoia. But the harsh desert and gleaming court are linked through their past, present, and future: a history of abductions in the desert to power Moquoia’s quarries and factories and a bleak, inhumane future built on the sweat and sacrifice of these bond laborers.

In the lands of Bethel, where the Prophet's word is law, Immanuelle Moore's very existence is blasphemy. Her mother's union with an outsider of a different race cast her once-proud family into disgrace, so Immanuelle does her best to worship the Father, follow Holy Protocol, and lead a life of submission, devotion, and absolute conformity, like all the other women in the settlement. But a mishap lures her into the forbidden Darkwood surrounding Bethel, where the first prophet once chased and killed four powerful witches.

Great Worldbuilding/Story/Narrator
A Master of Djinn is, essentially, an alternative history mystery story. A person claiming to be the legendary figure that caused the return of Djinn and magic to the world is stirring up trouble in Egypt. I really enjoyed the book, and while the themes are similar to other books, the setting and characters create an interesting and engaging story that I couldn't stop listening to. The narrator was great and really differentiated the characters. If your a fan of mystery, magic, period pieces, or Egyptian culture, then this book is worth listening to.

Perfect
One of my favourite books. The world building was perfectly intertwined with the story. I find myself being sad I could not linger more in this world. My first written review in hundreds of books.
The narration with the middle eastern accent furthered the feeling of a 1001 nights story,esoteric even.

Great characters, atmosphere, but plot predictable.
It’s a fun listen, but a predictable plot. Still vanishing into a world where Egyptian modernity includes djinn and magical machinery is a pleasure.

The most fun I've had with a book in a while
A delightful mix of a novel setting, cultural representation, and familiar tropes. On one level, this is a classic buddy cop story: the veteran who works alone partnered with a starry eyed rookie well have to overcome their differences to solve the case. But built on the familiar confirm of that framework is something fresh and novel. The veteran is a woman with a penchant for fine men's suits in 1930s Cairo whose lover is a feline femme fatale, and the rookie is a strong-willed hijabi woman who manages that rarest of feats in my experience: being a character for whom faith is an intrinsic part of who they are without it becoming the entirety of what they're about or manifesting in a way that makes the character harder to like.
The audiobook reading is also great. I love a reader who isn't afraid to really emote and be theatrical when the scene calls for it, and this reader does!
If I had to come up with a complaint with A Master of Djinn, there is one twist that the book seemed to expect to be more of a surprise than it was, but even then it was revealed in a scene that was just fun to imagine played out in my head. This is a book that begs to be made into a movie or big budget miniseries.
I'm looking forward to reading the other stories featuring these characters!

Great story, only decent performance
The story is fantastic. I appreciate the immersion and inclusivity of hiring an actress with an accent for the reading. Some of this performers dialogue was stilted, some words mispronounced, some scenes overacted. Other parts, especially the protagonist’s, she did quite well with. Overall, though, I’d recommend this audiobook.
