Examines the phenomenon the "fanboy auteur". The volume discusses both popular fanboys, such as J.J. Abrams and Joss Whedon, and fangirls like J.K. Rowling and E.L. James, and dissects how the fanboy-fangirl auteur dichotomy is constructed and defended, and how this discourse has played in maintaining the exclusionary status quo of geek culture.
