I'd seen this book at my local library, but only decided to pick it up after reading G. Willow Wilson's Ms. Marvel, Vol. 1: No Normal. 
 Cairo follows two young Americans who arrive in Cairo and are quickly swept up in a supernatural underworld populated by genies, demons, hash dealers, and Israeli soldiers. The story was surprisingly violent but wrapped into a feel good-ish package. The use of Arabic expressions as well as unfamiliar mythology made it hard for me to get on board. The fast pacing leaves little time to get to know the fairly large cast of characters. Had I spent time in Egypt myself, I would likely have enjoyed it more. Maybe this how readers who haven't been to Japan feel about Wayward #1...? 
 I will be using this as one of my books for my local GN group's March theme of travel & foreign lands.
