A Master of Djinn: Winner of the Nebula and Locus Awards
Winner of the prestigious Nebula and Locus Awards, P. Djeli Clark's spellbinding debut is a masterclass in worldbuilding, mystery, and wonder. Set in an alternate Cairo where djinn walk freely among mortals and magic is woven into the fabric of society, this novel announces a major voice in fantasy.
When a string of murders threatens to destabilize the delicate balance between the human and supernatural worlds, a brilliant detective—aided by her spirited companion—must uncover the truth. What begins as a murder investigation evolves into something far more complex: a tale of power, identity, and the cost of immortality itself.
Clark's prose crackles with energy and atmosphere. His Cairo is vividly rendered, his characters richly drawn, and his plot propulsive and utterly gripping. A Master of Djinn is the kind of novel that stays with you—a stunning blend of mystery, fantasy, and cultural richness that reminds us why we read.
Perfect for fans of Silvia Moreno-Garcia, N.K. Jemisin, and anyone seeking fantasy that takes risks and rewards close attention.
A cornerstone of The Literary Cat's All Time Favourites.
