I can highly recommend the Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn series by Tad Williams. They are 3 large b1ooks. The pages listed are from the current paper editions.
  1. The Dragonbone Chair (672 pages)
  2. The Stone of Farewell (608 pages)
  3. To Green Angle Tower (1104 pages)

I also recommend Otherland by Tad Willaiams.
  1. City of Golden Shadow (720 pages)
  2. River of Blue Fire (624 pages)
  3. Mountain of Black Glass (656 pages)
  4. Sea of Silver Light (864 pages)

Shōgun by James Clavell (1312 pages)

Anathem by Neal Stephenson is (937 pages)
