Progress Report / Community Update

Hero, the third installment of the Epic series, is already the longest book in the Epic series to date. According to author Lee Stephen, the 120,000-word mark was recently surpassed, far beyond the 99,000 words that made up Dawn of Destiny.

"There's still a ways to go yet," said Stephen, "but I'm very pleased with what I've got so far. A book can't be long just for the sake of being long, it's got to have purpose. Hero definitely has that."

He went on to state that Hero could reach as many as 150,000 words before its completion.
