Long stories going backwards or forwards (5)
I believe the answer is:
sagas
This clue might be a double definition.
'long stories' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'backwards or forwards' is the second definition.
'going' is the link.
I am not very happy about this link. It may belong to one of the definitions.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sagas that I've seen before include "Long involved stories" , "Tales of heroes" , "Myths" , "Heroic tales" .)
