[Following is a volunteer review of "Man Mission" by Eytan Uliel.]

Have you ever wanted to pack your bags and go out into the world, to visit places you dreamed of visiting? To create memories of your life and make each moment a lesson and experience joy and peace within you? If so, you're not alone.

However, it's not as simple as it sounds and just like it wasn't so easy for the characters in this book but they did. How did they do it? How was their experience? Have a read to find out!

Man Mission by Eytan Uliel is the exciting story of four old friends. They go on adventurous journeys together to experience wildlife and make it an annual tradition. Starting with the development of character and the baseline upon which a man's mission began with just the thought of doing something extraordinary between two men, then including one at a time in a four-member club. The idea was to go beyond the capacity of a man and try masculinity.

The book is narrated by the author, one of the members. The length of the chapters is decent allowing us to enjoy the time and be excited about what happens next. The author has done a good job of transitioning between families and careers along with travel narratives. There was a summary at the end of each chapter, stating who attended the trip, how they toured, what unique things happened, and any injuries and all were hilarious to read.

Further, with the family and social things, these men-only trips seem impossible to keep up, but then also somehow our four heroes managed to go out to places like Japan, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, and many more engaged in kayaking, biking, cycling, hiking, and other activities. From difficulty to relaxation, at the end of the journey, they learned much more about life and grew personally.

Being a man and an explorer, I can connect with the book deep within my heart. I like stories full of exciting experiences and humour with the entire reality of a man's life. I liked the information I got in this book about the places, the people and the culture of this place. I truly enjoyed each adventure trip they took and added a few trips to my bucket list too.

The author has put a map and scribbles before each chapter, which made me look forward to seeing what will happen. The writing style and detailed plots are appreciated. There's nothing to dislike about this book and nothing made me feel that this book ought to get fewer points.

I didn't find any grammatical errors, as it is professionally well-edited. That's why I rate Man Mission a 5 out of 5 stars. I recommend this book to all the men here who work and want to go out for an adventure and make an unforgettable life of their own. I do not recommend this book to children as it contains profane words.

Although this one appeared among my list of books to be reviewed, I was uncertain whether to choose it. Your review helped me to make a decision. Thank you.

This sounds like a book of fiction and a real-life story at the same time. I like when it happens like that because it keeps me wondering which it is.
Great review, thank you.

Great review, thank you.

I have the same view at first later on I came to know that it was a real-life event, but I still think that it has some kind of fictional scenes. Thank you for commenting.

Thank you! I feel all Men have this thing of doing extraordinary activities and going beyond our abilities and marking a new achievement in life.

I appreciate your honesty in stating that there was nothing error about this work. It's refreshing to see a memoir that doesn't rely on undertones to convey its message. It also shows that the author is able to connect with readers on a deeper level without relying on a specific set of beliefs.

Thank you! The author did a great job of connecting to the readers.

As a woman, I enjoyed getting a glimpse of how men interact on their outings when there are no women around. I appreciated seeing how they dealt with life's ups and downs. I hope you get to experience the new additions to your bucket list!

Thank you for your take on this read.

I loved this book so much the first time I read it as well, it just might be one of my favorites. The journey the 4 men started to take to escape from their daily lives is one I truly admire as every craves something like this. A release from the normal stressful days and to just take a break. A great review from you, good job.

Thank you for your comment! I feel the same, Everyone should take a break from their routine life and enjoy life with their loved ones.

Thank you for your great review! I chose to read this book one time, but my review copy had an issue, so it's still on my list.
