For a kick, read the Gord the Rogue novels by E.G. Gygax. Petty thief turns demigod and destroys the universe! Thats good fun and if it isn't high level I don't know what is. They were an entertaining read at very least. /QUOTE]

Yep, these are very clear examples of high-level, even epic-level, play.

Thieves and Kings contains several immortal characters, each of which are so freaking powerful, they can control the world without anyone knowing that they're doing so. This includes a number of sorcerers (and sorceresses), a wizard, but also a handful of "Thieves", which are feared and considered as or more powerful than any of the others, being able to "become a shaft of sunlight or a breath of wind", no one can catch them unless they allow it, they can catch memories in a bottle out of the air, tell dragons the size of mountains to go away and never come back, and do all sorts of other extraordinary things. FANTASTIC series, which I highly reccomend.
