Man Mission by Eytan Uliel narrates a journey of adventure, daring, and mundane life for a group of four friends. The narrator and his friends Sam, Alec, and Daniel are the main characters and the men on mission daring various outdoor activities.

The author magnificently captured every adventure and one can relate with the enthusiasm and the energy in these Australian teenage group as they plan and embark on any of their fun missions. The author takes the reader on a vicarious journey of mountain biking in the Alps of Japan, kayaking, camping and hiking in different countries. Apart from their serendipitous expenditions, this group of friends share conversations on how to manage their marriages and the challenges they have in their relationship both at home and workplace.

I liked the way they would take the adventure to another level with a team organizer and taking time to study the area and formulate a plan. I enjoyed reading every experience and admired how the narrator creatively portrayed the resilience and fortitude in these young fellas. The friendly banter was entertaining. I admired the way they connected and bonded through these outdoor voyage and daring expeditions. I also adored the author's unique and creative opening of every chapter with a quote relatable to the story and on a similar vein a second quote from the scriptures.

The book had a nice sense of humour which kept me smiling from time to time and made the story even more mesmerizing to read. The author took time to creatively and extensively bring out clearly the picture of every scenario with well detailed and vivid descriptions. Getting a clear imagination of the story made every moment in the book more capturing to me and I believe every reader will have the same interesting feeling of being part of the adventure.

The only thing that I disliked, though on a light note, was the formatting of the epub that I was reading as it had several blank pages that I had to keep skipping before I found the next page. Nonetheless, I don't know whether other formats of the book are well formatted. The formatting though was less of a distraction so I still enjoyed the book and found it quite interesting. There were no grammatical errors and the book was exceptionally well-edited.

Consequently, I would rate this book 4 out of 4 stars for I didn't find anything that would prompt me to deny a star and as for the formatting it was just a minor dislike. I would recommend the book to outdoor experience fans and lovers of challenging explores.

I noticed too the epub was so hard to read. I couldn't search or highlight anything. Nice review.
