Sam Manicom's dynamic third book transports you to Southern Africa and South America in an action-packed three year voyage of discovery. His richly descriptive writing opens up a world where travellers create their own breathtaking but fragile paths.

Sam has a gift for describing the vibrancy of people and places, why there were there, and how they fit in. He depicts a thought provoking mix of scrapes and encounters with people, which illuminate some moments of true darkness. You are led effortlessly through other worlds by his enthusiasm and his acute observations on everything from human behaviour to remote and stunning locations.

Distant Suns grabs you, enthrals you and spits you out as a convert to the dream of overlanding.
