A most excellent conjecture and well worth the great time it took me to read the entire series. Look deep, not surface - well, surface too. Much of the story is not so simple and apparently has spawned some semi-theological debate. Please hold back any religious perceptions resulting from your background educations and the story becomes most intriguing.

I would make a couple of observations concerning religions which others seem to have forgotten but that would give too much away even though this is/ is not a religious treatise. Please hold back your religious issues while reading because those very issues will cause you to miss much of what this series has to say.

To be truly appreciated, these stories should be read in order, which if it has not been spelled out then I list it below:

01 shortcut through Ovid
02 lawyer
03 road crew
04 bank robbers
05 jet jockey
06 developer
07 director
08 team
09 private eye
10 academician
11 bigot
12 rescuer
13 agent
14 band
15 politician
16 derelict
17 talking head
18 seals
19 sleeper
20 whiz kid
21 answers

Of course ‘answers’ actually raises so very many more questions, which is what the series apparently is all about.

It is, as I read it anyway, not intended to threaten anyone’s perception of God, the Universe, or apple pie. Rather, it offers a past, present and future which might have, possibly is, and could be reality. It is up to us to make of it what we will, much as it is the task of those who populate the town called - OVID.

My thanks to the Professor
