Can you actually read the Mahabharata in its original Sanskrit? Wow!
Actually, do you know if there are English translations? It sounds pretty interesting.
As far as ancient Eastern epics go, you should try Saiyuki. No, not that anime, but the original Chinese novel they very, very loosely based it on. Everyone in China knows the basic story, but I think I might be the only kid who started reading the original at 4 years of age. :D
Of course, I skipped all the parts I found boring or didn't understand.
