Review of Man Mission
[Following is a volunteer review of "Man Mission" by Eytan Uliel.]
Man Mission by Eytan Uliel is a work of fiction that adventure lovers will adore.
It all starts with Sam and the protagonist while still in college. They come up with the idea of sampling different places and their respective foods. This idea is held until later when the men are done with school, each with their respective families, careers, and jobs that man mission comes into action. The protagonist, Sam, Daniel, and Alec embark on an annual adventure away from home.
I love the men's charter as it is amusing in so many ways. The men form some of the rules in the charter to appease their wives in letting them go on the man mission. With the intention of not limiting themselves on the mission, the charter becomes a limiting agent, but they still go.
The writing style is unique and I fell in love with it. There are two quotes at the beginning of each chapter; one philosophical, and the other biblical. Also, the summary of the events after each chapter appealed to me. There is also a map that shows the next man mission destination.
The characters are realistic with their flaws. Sam seemed nice.
Bula, I know you don't know what this means but it is a word in Fiji. From this, you can say that of all the incredible destinations that the men visited, Fiji was my favorite. I loved the culture of the people and the people in the Yasawa Islands. They welcomed the protagonist and his friends in the most friendly way. And you have to read this book to get a wind of Fiji and other hiking destinations.
I felt bad that the men left behind the women to take care of the children. It was unfair that both parties (men and women- apart from Alec) were actively involved in the 'chaotic' business of raising the babies, but only the men got a break from it all. Some of the activities that the men partook in during their adventure were also dangerous with casualties.
Above all, I loved the man missions. It gave the men a chance of being boys again without fear of being judged. A good stress relief. The author describes the different destinations vividly, and the activities are realistic. The theme of family comes out strongly. The theme of friendship also comes in handy.
This book is professionally well edited as I didn't come across any errors in editing. The writing flows, with the protagonist filling us in on their separate family growths. I give it a 4 out of 4 stars. This read will serve as a guide to picking a hiking destination. I recommend it to lovers of traveling and adventure.
