I highly recommend [The Writer's Journey](http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/193290736X), a writing manual which shows you how to create a Hero's Journey story structure.

The Hero's Journey is one of the classic story archetypes of human literature, from The Odyssey to Star Wars. Read through the book and envision how you could put your characters into it.
