WINNER OF THE NEBULA AWARD FOR BEST NOVEL, 2022
WINNER OF THE LOCUS AWARD FOR BEST FIRST NOVEL
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 50 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....
P. Djèlí Clark is the winner of the Nebula, Locus and Alex Awards and has been shortlisted for the Hugo Award.

Incredible world building
I would have given the story, characters and writing three stars, but the world building in this book is simply phenomenal. Deserves to be read just for that, though I suggest reading it instead of listening to it.

Narrator not for me.
Going to preface my comment by acknowledging how subjective our enjoyment of any narrator is, but I struggled to finish this excellent book. The narration felt terribly overacted to me. It drowned out the story and the writing. I ended up switching to the ebook. YMMV :)

Faminist-woke crap
If I want to be lectured on feminism I just need to tune in to CNN, not buy an audiobook. I stopped listening halfway because the majority has been about feminist ideology. I will no longer purchase Hugo or Nebula award winners. Pweh!!
