The abbreviation of etcetera is etc. fyi.

Nothing bigger than the historical narrative of the working class vs. the wealthy elites.

If you can be arsed, start that tetralogy with Richard II. Not neaaarly as good as the ones he listed, but sets up the story proper

An additional recommendation is Anabasis. Look it up, shit is amazing

I'd also say to ideally start with Richard II, but it's the opposite of an underdog story

Exodus. Total underdog story.

How can it be an underdog story when you literally have the most powerful being in the universe on your side?

Gandalf didnt have that much impact on the story after he died especially frodos part with the exception of redirecting aragorn from finding merry and pip. Which you could argue he would have done anyway after he met treebeard

The Iliad is all you need
