Omar the Perfume Seller and other fantastical stories by Rob Stuart

This highly entertaining book, `Omar the Perfume Seller and other Fantastical Stories', is an often tongue-in-cheek, always affectionate, homage to fantasy tales. `Omar the Perfume Seller' is a cautionary tale that examines the consequences of upsetting a powerful Djinn; `Say it with Flowers' is a detective story/ murder mystery with a twist, set in an alternative Britain; `The Kidnap Kaper' is a noir-type story in which a `hard-boiled' private eye is hired to resolve a kidnapping. Fans of the Brothers Grimm might well recognise the villain! The intriguingly titled `The Fabulous and Wonderful Frowla' is a Quest Tale unlike any other. It begs to be read and pondered! Finally, two short, award-winning stories, `Stag' and `Gossip' round off the collection.
