Baba Ali and the Clockwork Djinn
Danielle Ackley-McPhail (2014)

In England, far from his desert home, Ali bin-Massoud serves as apprentice to the famed Charles Babbage. One night a mysterious box is delivered by a clockwork falcon and Ali’s world is never the same again.

A mix of steampunk and eastern mythology. There is clear reference to Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves. Reading the Wiki entry, most of the plot comes from the folk tale. But as I was not familiar with the detail of the story, it was an interesting story as the only part I recalled was the incident with the thief filled vases.

It all comes to a satisfying ending as any fairy tale should.
