Long heroic stories (5)

I believe the answer is:

epics

(Other definitions for epics that I've seen before include "Long narrative poems telling of deeds of heroes" , "Long poems about great events" , "Long tales of heroic deeds" , "Spice up with adventurous poems or stories" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
