We did a search for a story with multifaceted characters, lots of background, and dramatic turns that truly capture the human experience ... and we found
The Autobiography of a Crystal [multifaceted, to a flaw!]
in the Formation of the Solar System [now there's some background!]
From the Incremation of the Sphere of Equity in the Heavens [too few authors make an effort with the incremation of the sphere of equity in the heavens, if you ask us]—
the Fall of Lucifer [sensationalist, yes, but always fun]—
Dissolving of Chaos and Beginning of This Resurrection, Commonly Called the Creation of Heaven and Earth,
To the Expulsion of Adam From Eden by Cyrus George Dunn, 1876.
