Man Mission by Eytan Uliel is an interesting novel. It is made up of four friends who together are experiencing the varying turns and twists of life. Their friendship began in their youth, and they kept on looking out for each other, encouraging, and when necessary reprimanding while navigating through dating, raising kids, and making major career decisions. Beginning with Sam, then Daniel and Alec coming on board in later seasons, a runaway trip to escape the severe tedious routines of their life was born. This tradition is held unbroken as these four travel to Spain, Africa, Korea, New Zealand, Japan, and lots of other countries. In each of these trips lay a different depth of experience that goes on to affect and change the varying course of their life. Get on board as these four friends take us through the thrills in Africa's forest, the cultural diversity in Korea, and a full load of adventures.

This book has a lot of interesting parts to it. It felt like I was watching or experiencing an adventure series. One of the most phenomenal things about this book is the way the author described each geographical region. It felt so real and true. The author achieved this not just by describing the exterior of the country, but he allowed insight into the conversation and participation of the different countrymen and their reactions to different scenarios. This allowed the book to harness full persuasive power. In reading this book, because of the professionalism and powerful research provision that the author gave, it felt like I was on a tour of these different countries.

In the events of going through this memoir, I did not find anything that displeased me. One of the best parts of this book was the characterization, how the author built up his different characters and they became so visible over time. I also enjoyed the central theme of the book, which was friendship. In a world of too much chaos, having a friend can prove so relaxing and this fact was not ignored by the author. The other accompanying themes of this book like marriage, child care, career, and the like were very educational, and I enjoyed every bit of it.

I enjoyed the voice of humor in this book. It helped me relax as I went through the thrill of this book. The book was also professionally edited, this goes a long way to prove that the author invested a lot of time to prepare this work of art. The writing techniques and style of the writer were an A-game, and with this, I gladly award this book with four out of four stars.

I recommend this book to mature readers of all sex and race. There is a lot to learn from the different characters, and the different choices they had to make, especially in decisions concerning child training, marital crisis, and the plaguing question of divorce and its causes. This is a well-crafted book by a talented author, and it leaves you pondering your own choices.

The adventures at all the different locations described in this book sound fun. You clearly appreciated the characters' experiences beyond their travels too!

I would very much liked to keep up with my friends like Mr. Uliel did. We let life get too much in the way and now it’s been 35 years.

Same thing I thought about while reading this book. Even though it's just a little thing, I would really appreciate it.
