I read this a little while back, and liked it a bit more than you did
it would seem. As far as the links to acquire, the e-book on Indigo is
to Kobo, so a direct link to that might be warranted. I like Kobo
because they sell you epubs, as does Apple, but I can buy on my PC from
a web site.

https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/the-jinn-bot-of-shantiport

Interestingly, on the Apple link the books shown for "Customers Also
Bought" had:

Station Eternity
The Haunting of Tram Car 015
Quantum of Nightmares
A Dead Djinn in Cairo
Escape from Yokai Land
Machine

I've read all except the second, which makes me think I might want to
look into that one.
