From the publisher

Quest narratives are as old as Western culture. In stories like The Odyssey , The Lord of the Rings , Star Wars and Harry Potter , men set out on journeys, fight battles and become heroes. Women traditionally feature in such stories as damsels in need of rescue or as the prizes at the end of heroic quests. These narratives perpetuate predominant gender roles by casting men as active and women as passive.
