Camping with your closest friends is the ultimate holiday experience. Sam, Alec, Daniel, and the narrator are the four friends that work as a team on exciting and enjoyable yearly holiday missions, and their adventures are told in this novel, Man Mission, by Eytan Uliel. Do you believe that, given the time and effort put into each mission, any barriers or problems would be too great for this group of men to overcome? Learn more by reading this book.

Sam and the narrator, who amongst the four friends had a lot in common, came up with the idea of taking an annual holiday trip to a variety of exotic destinations, with possible outdoor activities involving hiking, biking, or kayaking. Three years later, this concept really came to pass, with the first and second missions taking place in New Zealand and Japan, respectively, and only involving Sam and the narrator. Over time, Daniel and Alec joined them on their subsequent missions.

After finishing this book, I came to understand that a trip for men alone could occasionally be enjoyable. Thanks to how thoroughly the story is told in this book, I was able to gain some insight from the four friends' private and familial lives. One intriguing aspect of the four friends' friendships that has stuck in my mind is how well they work together and value one another. I adore how the four friends were able to work as a team while on the mission and how they each handled their individual tasks to ensure a successful and safe mission. I gained more knowledge about accountability, parenting, giving up things for others, love, and community from their family life.

Out of all the many great qualities of this book, the plot was the one that piqued my interest the most. Reading the book was made intriguing by how well structured it is. The author's use of a certain writing style in this book also caught my attention and made it more enjoyable. The characters were well developed, with the exception of the narrator's name not appearing in the book, making the novel interesting and simple to read. This book is broken up into three parts, each of which has five chapters. Each chapter corresponds to one of the places the four friends visited.

Aside from the tiny font size used in the book, which slowed my reading slightly but not enough to deduct a star, there were no negative aspects I could notice while reading the book. I could spot no obvious typos or grammatical errors, indicating an exceptionally edited book. I would rate this book four out of four stars. I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in vacations, anyone who loves adventurous books, and those who would want to learn a thing or two about teamwork, love, and respect.
