Countless people desire to go on vacations or to live that fantasy they've always dreamt about, going from one country to another, either alone or with friends. Such is the dream of the protagonist and his friends, though it started with the protagonist first. Man Mission, by Eytan Uliel, is a journey of 15 years taken by four men.

The narrator, whose name was not mentioned, meets Sam at law school, where he expresses his dream to him. Sam accepts the fantasy to be fun, too, but that conversation ended there. Years later. Sam calls the narrator to ask if he'd like to go on the trip from before. There, Man Mission was born. It begins with just Sam and the protagonist. They went to New Zealand on their first trip, which ended in the narrator breaking his ankle. Daniel joined next on their third trip, and finally, Alec joined. 

These four went through the phases of life, got into relationships, got married, gave birth to children, built careers, changed careers, and got divorced. They had a lot of fun on their different journeys, hiking, kayaking, and cycling, to mention a few.

It was so fun going on these different journeys with them. I got to learn about different states, food, and culture. It is nice to have people around you, especially when going through difficult times. The beauty of this story is that they were there for each other. None had to go through anything alone. The support of their friends got them going. 

The book is very informative about the countries they visited. Mr. Uliel did an outstanding job describing each scene, place, and action very distinctly. It helps the reader in getting along with the journey. Not only was this informative, but it was also very entertaining. I had a good laugh while reading. The protagonist here is a man who gets scared easily, which was quite funny in some situations. I couldn’t stop reading when I started till I got to the last page.

There's nothing I hate about this novel, except for the text size. It was very uncomfortable trying to read those tiny texts. This issue didn't deter the beauty of the book, though. 

The editing of the story was exceptionally and professionally done. I could not detect a single error from it. I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. Likewise, I didn't regret reading it. It's worth the time. The author did a great job.

I'll recommend it to adventure and travel lovers. They can get an idea of their next travel here.

Fantastic summary. Your review does absolute justice to the book's plot. I also enjoyed the adventure scenes, especially the one in Japan.

It is amazing how men can continue to be friends after such long periods of time.

.I truly partook in this excursion through masculinity, the consistent and deftly-woven equal stories portraying the advancement of the 4 mens' connections and their Man Missions.

While reading this book, I was astonished how the author's name was not mentioned even once. It just adds to the quirks of this book. XD
