Line 76:
* The FBI's search for the terrorists who caused the subway bombing in ''[[Final Destination]]: Destination Zero''; it eventually culminates in an abrupt yet brief [[Genre Shift]] from horror to action, involving stuff like a warehouse shootout and a high speed chase through the city during rush hour.
* In [[The Lord of the Isles]] series, at least two out of the four main characters are Trapped by Mountain Lions for a significant portion of each book, after the first novel. Of course, [[Fridge Brilliance]] suggests that because of this when {{spoiler|three characters visit [[The Underworld]] in a book called}} [[A God Am I|The Gods]] [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Return]]{{spoiler|it is not readily apparent that this is more than yet another trippy side trip.}} On the other hand, was it really necessary to have ''eight books'' worth of Trapped by Mountain Lions?
* ''[[Harry Potter and Thethe Deathly Hallows (novel)|Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows]]'' has been accused of having this as its main storyline, which is the only point of view given after the first chapter. Obviously Harry, Ron and Hermione hunting down the [[Soul Jar|Horcruxes]] is a big deal, but with its difficult pacing and long stretches of Dumbledore backstory only tangentially necessary to the plot, it sort of falls short compared to Voldemort having taken over the Ministry of Magic and [[The Unchosen One|Neville]] [[Took a Level in Badass|running]] [[La Résistance]] [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|inside the school]], which [[Fan Nickname|the Golden Trio]] (and thus the readers) only hear about secondhand.
* The Tom Bombadil scene in ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]''.
* Really, several parts of ''[[Twilight (novel)|Twilight]]''. Even when there's this huge vampire war looming, the focus of the book is still on the relatively shallow romance between the two main characters.
