I obtained this short story for free as part of a collection of offered stories that had fun and well-rounded characters. This story did indeed deliver characters such as this. This story was very new in offering an idea of Fantasy and the world of fashion, hats in this story, and the great lengths that women will go to when buying apparel to "show off" to everyone around.The idea of hats was original and that artifacts and magical items were used and the focal point made this story that much more fun! The characters of Gaspar the thief and his sidekick, Hubris were well-developed and a lot of fun to follow along on this adventure to obtain a rare item for a new hat. It's almost like watching Laurel and Hardy in a Fantasy setting and the story has a Discworld style to it that Terry Pratchett fans would enjoy.I recommend this to all fans of Fantasy and the Discworld series. I'm looking forward to the next book.
