Rising SFF star P. Djeli Clark brings an alternate New Orleans of orisha, airships, and adventure to life in his immersive debut novella The Black God's Drums.

In an alternate Cairo, humans live and work alongside otherworldly beings; the Ministry of Alchemy, Enchantments and Supernatural Entities handles the issues that can arise between the magical and the mundane. Senior Agent Hamed Nasr shows his new partner Agent Onsi Youssef the ropes of investigation when they are called to subdue a dangerous, possessed tram car. What starts off as a simple matter of exorcism, however, becomes more complicated as the origins of the demon inside are revealed.

Set in an alternate Cairo in the early 20th century, this fun, fresh and exciting fantasy novel combines all the tricky twists you want from a police procedural with djinn, magic and a sense of wonder - think Rivers of London meets The City of Brass
