The Well World Saga, a ten-book series, by Jack L. Chalker.
It's semi-fantasy and takes place over many millennia. It's not so "fantasy" that it would turn off those who may otherwise dismiss it. It's more about the characters thoughts and motivations than the fantasy part of things.
The first book in the series is "Midnight at The Well of Souls".
It's a standalone story.
There is great character development, and some pretty interesting concepts are introduced.
I highly recommend it and them, if they can still be found.

I used to love Beth Moore bible studies when I did them at church. I tried doing one at home but it was not interesting cause the churches have access to videos that explain half of the study to you so doing the study without the video is boring.

When I was little, I bought every Peanuts book that came out until about 1970. Round about that time, I started getting into Mad magazine and bought every Don Martin book I could find. In the late `70's, ethnic jokes were all the rage so I bought all the ethic joke books I could find. You were buying two books for the price of one because on the one side, it might've been all Polish jokes then, you flip the book over and start from the other end and they're all Irish jokes. They had Italian, Jewish, Black, white, religious, not-so-religious, dirty, clean, etc..
I am not a person who has read many books but I remember that when I was 13 years old or so, I found a book with legends and tales from around the world that I liked a lot. That would be one of my favorite books. As an adult I found some books in the thrift stores that I liked a lot like this one:

I liked the Spenser series by Robert B. Parker. The TV show Spenser For hire was based on these books. I had Dr.. Parker as a professor when I was in college and he was just getting his first novel published.

I loved reading The Boxcar Children and Junie B. Jones. The Boxcar Children was full of suspense with all the mysteries they were trying to solve and Junie B. Jones was just a very funny Kindergarten kid.
This guy developed a whole new language and then started writing a story, and then he wrote another language in another language in another language, and then his story went back to the equivalent of prehistoric times, including a whole creation, story and God, and all the angels at the development of the relationship in earth, and how are affected millions of peoples and his history went on for maybe 15,000 years. This one guy set the standard for all fantasy literature for the entire 20th century and beyond the man was an amazingly gifted writer.
Yes actually. It's like that but it's slower. That's an exaggerated version. I found a website that was so accurate last year but they took it down. Which is a shame because that was the closest thing to it
I can get through that, but it’s because I already knew all the words so my brain makes sense of it even though it takes a while. If you’re still trying to learn the words, I could only see that as a type of nightmare.. I’m sorry that you have to deal with that. I know it sucks.
