About this listen

In the hours after September 11, 2001, Aaron Tait deployed to war as a 17-year-old military officer.

This is the story of what happened next.

Far Horizons is a globe-spanning coming-of-age memoir of a fighter turned peace-seeker on a vibrant journey of transformation, adventure and love, set against backdrops of the Iraq War, Africa, and the world beyond. Fresh and introspective, it will lead you to exploring not only the far corners of the world, but also the uncharted aspects of yourself.

I finished Far Horizons in a day and a half. It sucked me in and his way of storytelling made me feel like I was there.

Aaron’s writing is SO vivid you can taste the salt, feel the heat, and sense the weight of every decision. It’s full of honesty, courage and heart, but also this quiet reflection that makes you pause and think about your own life.

It’s not just about adventure, love or army; it’s about humanity, bravery, connection, and the constant search to do good in a complicated world.

It’s the kind of story that lingers, asking bigger questions long after you’ve turned the last page.

Write another book please Aaron!
