The Elephants in the Room -- BIG BOOKS!

If it ain't a thousand pages, it ain't on this list!
And fiction only!
Some of these beasts read like they were written centuries ago – and they were!
But others have mighty swift feet for creatures so large.
If you have read ten or more, consider yourself a true big-game hunter!
(Notes: I cut out all series and "some" long single works that are often packaged as a series. Word count is another measure, but here I use pages, which might vary according to the publication.)
