The Alchemist of Al-Qahirah

In the shadowed alleys of Cairo, a disgraced alchemist holds the city's fate in his hands.

Once a celebrated master of alchemic arts, Youssef El-Rawi returns to a steam-powered Cairo now dominated by the iron grip of the British Technocracy. Haunted by the ruin of his past and the catastrophic failure that exiled him, Youssef seeks only quiet redemption-until his brother is accused of bombing the Imperial Dam, a vital artery of the city's life force.

To clear his family's name, Youssef must plunge into Cairo's perilous underworld of steamwright rebels, djinn-binders, and political conspirators. What begins as a desperate search for truth becomes a battle to uncover a hidden war-a war over a legendary Codex said to control the very flow of the Nile... and reality itself.

With time running out and enemies closing in from all sides, Youssef must rediscover the alchemic power he once renounced-before the city he loves is torn apart by forces both mechanical and magical.

Steeped in mysticism and steampunk wonder, The Alchemist of Al-Qahirah is a spellbinding tale of redemption, resistance, and the cost of wielding forbidden power.
