Baba Ali and the Clockwork Djinn: A Steampunk Faerie Tale by Danielle Ackley-McPhail
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Baba Ali and the Clockwork Djinn was a really interesting read. I’ve not read many steampunk genre books before but I really like the re-telling’s of fairy tales and other storied from my childhood so I really wanted to give this book a try and I actually really enjoyed it. The writing was great, I like it when dual authors work together and you can’t tell – their writing styles complemented each other perfectly. The characters were great, well thought out and planned and the detail and descriptions were fantastic, I could definitely imagine what I was reading.
Overall I thought that this was a wonderful read, captivating and exciting the whole way through. I would definitely like to read more from these authors again in the future and I absolutely would recommend this book to other readers.
