"I have to include Faulkner. With multiple narrators, shifts in time, and sentences that go on for a thousand words, it is an Everest-like challenge. But its epic story of the doomed Sutpen dynasty is a masterpiece of Southern literature. Read it slowly (you pretty much have to) and savor every word."

Incredible
This book, for me is the greatest story I have ever read. There are pieces of it that we have seen on TV or read in books, however every emotion is touched in this book, its a true epic and one for everybody who loves fiction in any format to read

This comic was epic. I loved the entire story, all the art and the characters were fantastic. This helps explain more of Angela and Sera's background while throwing in other characters that don't always get time in the spot light or are barely known. After reading this, I now have a few new cosplays to make.

An epic adventure into the world of Virtual Reality gaming
This is the first instalment of the Sword Art Online series, originally written in Japanese but translated into English in the form of a light novel. The first book introduces you to the world and some of the players, the plots, side plots and the different factions that form. Most players team up to the defeat the game, but the main character decides to go it alone. Thousands of players die, thousands are still trapped but once the game has been completed you might be fooled into thinking that this is the end. This is not the case, so far I have read 17 of the books in the main series and a few other side stories. This is an epic world and an epic story.
