Persuasively reconstructing the hero's journey in her excellent and erudite book, Nadia Salem gives us a new Call to Adventure, a paradigm shift that moves us to change. In so doing, the heroine finally gets her due and readers and viewers are shown how a character develops and matures. The Monomyth Reboot is an important, analytical, and necessary book that augments our understanding of storytelling and the mythic heroes and heroines who animate our lives. We're all familiar with the Hero's Journey, even if we don't know it. From Star Wars, to Harry Potter, to The Avengers, we're surrounded by the coming-of-age story. In this thoughtful and engaging book, Nadia Salem asks the important question, what comes next? By melding the hero's and the heroine's journey, Salem explores what it means to make a myth...and why such myths are so crucial to the human experience.
