Prologue and Thirty-three Chapters Written, Produced and Read by Olde Scooter Give it a shot  HERE .  ...All together in sequence, a "playlist" concoction on YouTube.

Then as I was contemplating a title, it occurred to me that most of the leading characters were females, other than the protagonist. I hadn't planned it that way.
