I have to do a book report that stresses the hero’s journey. So it should have more than 200 pages. Do any books jump out in your mind? I’m at a loss for books that fit this, so any help would be appreciated.

The Odessey by Homer, translated by Robert Fagles is a great book that stresses the hero’s journey. I had to read it for a literature class and I was surprise that it was not as hard a read as I thought it would be.

I can think of lots foo ‘hero’s journey’ books, but they are all part of a series. Maybe Wizard’s First Rule by Terry Goodkind – the first book of a series that started off great, but got boring after book 6. It stands alone as its own adventure, so I guess you could use if for your purposes. Maybe The Redemption of Althalus – by David Eddings?

This is definitely my area of expertise.
The best is “The Hobbit”, but his is a rather long book.
Second is “Journey to the Center of the Earth” – the best pure adventure book I ever read, and free online. Includes a very well-laid-out journey with a specific goal. The rest of Verne’s books also fulfill your requirements and are free online. Some of his best are
Around the World in 80 Days
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (in which the journey is taken by force)I hope this helps.
