NKM may be reliable because it is the choice of the majority. Famous is not bad; I liked it. Moreover, you have internet for every query. I also found Jahangir's books for MA English Literature Part-I & II satisfactory.

NKM's books cover almost all the aspects of all the subjects.

I don't think so. NKM appears to be collection of material collected from internet or other sources.

No, its not exam cram series. Its complete syllabus with separate books of Part-I and II. It covers the syllabus, but you should make extra efforts and collect material from internet or other sources to secure good marks.

I suggest you 'Norton Anthology of English Literature' volume 1 and 2. It will help you a lot but don't rely on one book only.You have to go through more books.

my advice would be don't cram.. just understand the text, read critical from NKM and then try to attempt a few Qs from the past papers on your own. M.A English is not about cramming.
moreover time management is very important in it try to attempt one Q in 40 mins
