Well. To be honest, things will never be easy for Fitz. But over the next trilogies, there are moments where he's at peace or finds bits of happiness. If you get as far as the latest trilogy, you'll see he eventually gains some of the things I'm guessing you feel he's deprived of right now. It's a long road, and I think the journey alone makes it worth. It never lasts "forever" though, if that's the sort of resolution you're looking for.
These aren't easy books to read, emotionally speaking, but I think they feel truer because of the shifting states between being content and struggling. If you just want to read something to just escape and get a happy ending where all wrongs get fixed, these aren't the books for that.
It's interesting that you brought up Castaway, I had forgotten about that movie but I see what you mean. I think it's important to consider the other side though - how long should anyone wait for someone that's missing or presumed dead? How long can you put your own life on hold for someone else?
