A Master of Djinn by P. Djèlí Clark
4.0
adventurous mysterious
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

A fun adventure mystery in a magical steampunk Cairo of 1912, with djinn and other creatures a part of the world. Really neat worldbuilding and a fun story, though I did figure out the villain quite a ways before the reveal. Can definitely see why this got its Hugo nomination.
