Within both series, we see a smart, streetwise female on a journey who takes a clueless, strong male who lives in solitude out on 'her' adventure across the lands, searching for a number of specific items.

The male lead isn't subject to buttmonkey and dispite his intellect being questionable, he does make you wonder at times.
A partnership of brains and brawn - both being nessessary.
Both are have a whole lot of conversation-worthy material.
