Man Mission by Eytan Uliel is a fiction book that portrayed the life of four buddies who went on adventures occasionally to give themselves a break from work and family stress. During their expedition, the four buddies, Sam, Alec, Daniel, and the protagonist, all of whom were classmates right from school, talked about their professions, families, and the ups and downs of their lives. 

It was amazing to read about the Man mission. Different locales were explored, and lots of fascinating and thought-provoking activities were carried out, like chasing the northern lights, cycling on mountain bikes, attacking cows presumed to be wolves, sailing around Thailand in a catamaran, and more. 

This book covered a lot of themes, like friendship, risks, alcohol, and expedition. Despite the normal focus of this book, it also emphasizes that humans are full of flaws and shortcomings, and one of the ways to get through it is by meeting a friend of yours that will be able to understand your condition and give you the best advice that will guide you. This was one of the qualities the Man mission exhibited.

I loved the different cultures I encountered while reading this book, but the one that caught my attention the most was the Siberian belief that a real man catches and kills their food. The tone that the author used in his write-up gave this book a more friendly look, and I felt as if it were a close friend that was narrating the book to me, especially with the fact that this book was written from the narrator’s point of view. I did not find any errors in this book, which shows that it was exceptionally well-edited by the author.

The only thing I found a little bit odd about this book was that the narrator’s name was rarely mentioned in it. Although I thought to myself, maybe the author decided to place himself as the protagonist in the book, which seems to be rare in fiction books. But since I can’t tell, I believe the author has his reasons for that. Other than this, I have no discrepancies with this book. I loved the storyline and the character development of this book. Kudos to the author.

Due to my love for his book, I will rate it 5 out of 5 stars. I did not see any reason to take away any stars from this book. This book has lots of profane words, which makes it age-limited. I, therefore, recommend this book to adults who love books about friendship and adventures.

Man mission seems like an interesting read. I would love to learn more about the themes discussed in the book, and I wonder why the narrator's name was not mentioned.

Man Mission is an excellent book that borders on the importance of friendship. I like that these friends still maintained their friendship over the years. They even make out time annually to hang out. Here, I learnt that it’s okay for men to cry.
