In addition to the main novels, the Dead Djinn Universe includes several novellas and short stories that expand on the world and characters, offering additional perspectives and adventures within the same alternate Cairo setting.

The Dead Djinn Universe is a standalone series within P. Djèlí Clark's body of work, though it shares his distinctive blend of historical fantasy and social commentary. It does not directly feature characters or plotlines from his other series.
