P. Djeli Clark returns to the historical fantasy universe of A Dead Djinn in Cairo, with the otherworldly adventure novella The Haunting of Tram Car 015.

Cairo, 1912: The case started as a simple one for the Ministry of Alchemy, Enchantments, and Supernatural Entities - handling a possessed tram car. Soon, however, Agent Hamed Nasr and his new partner, Agent Onsi Youssef, are exposed to a new side of Cairo stirring with suffragettes, secret societies, and sentient automatons in a race against time to protect the city from an encroaching danger that crosses the line between the magical and the mundane.

I love the worldbuilding in this series and this was another exciting addition. Short and fun mystery that left me wanting to explore more of the storyworld's lore.

Intriguing worldbuilding and fun characters!

The story is excellent and a great prelude to A Master of Djinn. I found the performance to be fine and I don’t understand the negative reviews of Mr. Thomas’ performance. While he reads a little slowly for my taste, this was easily resolved by playing it at 1.2X speed, and it certainly did NOT detract from the story. Don’t skip this fine and well performed book.

Excellent book, reasonably well performed

This story really surprised me. I loved the light-heartedness and the mystery/adventure.

Julian Thomas’ reading/performance was well done and really added to the fun.

Great story read incredibly well

This is a fun little side story to the author's other works in the same world. I highly recommend listening to it before going on to A Master of Djinn.

Great Addition

The narrator is horrible! Poor enunciation, atrocious “Egyptian” accent. I’ll be returning this book as I couldn’t last more than 5 minutes. I’ll get it in ebook.

I assume the story is good, as I’ve enjoyed the others in the series, but this narrator is awful. Thank goodness the GOOD narrator is doing the full-length novel!!

Un-listenable!

I bought 3 of this author's books at once, and started with this one as it appears to be the earliest. The narration was obviously going to hinder my enjoyment but I tried to power through. With just a little over an hour left to finish the book I am giving up. Also, the story started out slow. I love descriptions, but in this case the balance of way too much description and way too little happening in the beginning was also a drag. The story picked up speed toward the middle. Sentences that started out with "He" for a character that then included "she" or "her" for the same character in the same sentence kept pulling me out of the story. But, then since there was a character also in the story that randomly and quickly changed genders, I wondered if these sentences were deliberate - even though they were not about the gender-changing character. But, every time it happened I missed part of the story since I was wondering if this was a narration mistake or part of the writing. Too confusing, and not worth the effort to tolerate and finish. I read the reviews for the next book and think I will just move on to the next, A Dead Djinn in Cairo. Looks good.

Did Not Finish - flat narration, complex story

what a fabulous world P. Djeli Clark is giving us! For an American reader/listener this is a rapturously different setting for a supernatural crime story. The story is fun and the protagonists are appealing but the stand out star is a reimagined Cairo, inhabited by humans and djinn and others, spicy and lovely and very different from the European settings that are so frequent in such stories. I am looking forward to revisiting Clark's Cairo, and revelling in familiar storylines made fresh by a perspective that is very rich .

I loved this book! It only took me a few days to finish it but I appreciate the author not dragging it out. Highly recommend

Great Story, Quick Read

The narrator was monotone with a middle eastern accent. I can see way it ended up being a short story and not a novel.

Just alright
