While at university, four best friends fantasized about traveling every year to different exotic locations around the world with the sole purpose of sampling every cuisine and participating in outdoor activities like biking, hiking, or kayaking. A few years after graduating from university, they all forget about their dream of traveling the world. Their focus becomes centered on their career and family. Living life with their day-to-day activities becomes boring, so they decided to revisit their dream of traveling the world. For these friends, going around the world doing something wild and crazy remain their only idea of having fun. Participating in outdoor activities such as camping, cooking, biking, hiking, and kayaking was what would take their minds away from the everyday stress of being a man. Finally, they made a decision, and their dream of traveling around the world is gradually becoming a reality. But first, to be the good man that society expects them to be. They need to have the support and permission of their wives before embarking on this wild and crazy journey. And most importantly, they all have to play by the relationship handbook and obey the mission's rules. 

Man Mission by Eytan Uliel is a thought-provoking story that portrays the lives, relationships, and challenges of many men in our society. According to the anonymous narrator, being a man means you should never complain about your sorrows, problems, and challenges as women do. Your emotions do not matter, and your purpose of existence is to protect and provide for your family. It does not matter whether you are happy or not; what matters most is your role as a provider and a protector. I believe this aspect of the story is significant and relatable to everyone. Most especially women, who like to think that men are superhuman. We often forget that men are also humans who have troubles and worries and should be pampered. For example, the narrator's wife, Rachel, kept encouraging her husband to work harder and make more money to fulfill their needs without caring whether he was achieving fulfillment in his job. I particularly appreciated the author's sense of humor and enjoyed the book from page to page. I laughed out loud most of the time while reading this book. This story is interesting, exciting, and captivating and is a must-read for everyone who enjoys adventure.

There is absolutely nothing I disliked about this book. The story was genuinely fascinating, and the author did an excellent job of detailing every character's ups and downs. The book also followed a sequential order that made the story very interesting to follow and understand. I never had a dull moment while reading this book, as every page turned gave me more suspense and intense excitement.

Overall, I would rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. I have no reason to deduct a star because it is a well-written book that captured many emotions. The book deserves a perfect rating because it was professionally edited, and I found the plots unfolding at a remarkably steady pace. I equally enjoyed how the author incorporated several lessons to give readers a genuine sense of humor and precise understanding.

I would recommend this book to adventure lovers who appreciate innovative approaches to story-telling. Furthermore, I would also recommend it to people who have a burning desire in their hearts to take a tour around the world. My word of encouragement is to not give up on your dreams.
