Ever since I started writing a story that is mostly a journey from place to place, I couldn't help but think how much easier stories are that are set in one location. They benefit from so much. For a journey, you're chasing someone or fighting time to get somewhere. For set location stories, they can always go back to their home or wherever and tend to their wounds, failures, friendships. Most tv shows I can think of are placed in a set location, be it a town, a city, a school, something of that sort.
What are some good books/stories that involve a plot that takes characters from point A to a far far far off point Z by the end of the story? How do they deal with time with the characters wanting to rush to the end while still needing to have quiet moments every now and then that don't feel off and counter intuitive to this mad dash?
