Man Mission is a thriller-packed book by Eytan Uliel. The novel follows the stories of four men. These friends have known each other for a long time. They embark on a journey. One that takes them fifteen years of exploration. They visited Japan, Vietnam, Iceland, New Zealand, South Africa, and many other places during their travels. They participated in different sports and activities in the different places they visited. They experienced the various cultures of different areas and their diversity. They carried out a lot of fun activities. As time passed by, with age kicking in, boys became men. They face life as it comes, with all its thrills and travails.

The author put so much effort into explaining his journey in detail. Man Mission is a book that displays growth at different levels. The author makes it more exciting by including a map of where they will visit next. It helped with my understanding of the places they went. The quote at the beginning of the new chapters helped me understand the summary of the missions. In the fifteen years Ethan spent with his friends on these excursions, he describes the difficulties they underwent along the journey at different points. Eytan Uliel is such a good writer that the book instinctively pulls you in. I was enthralled with a deep understanding and clarity on aspects of men's lives that are usually marked off as masculinity but are equally overlooked.

I love the sense of community they shared amongst themselves. They made the opinions and decisions of their wives significant and even had a community meeting consisting of their wives to make certain decisions. It was beautiful to see. Ethan, Alec, Daniel, and Sam are such amazing friends. They have been through so much as a pair, yet they have personal affairs. Man Mission is an excellent narration, encompassing friendships, relationships, teamwork, and growth. It has so many themes to pick from. There were no negative aspects of this book. I liked everything about the book.

Man Mission set itself apart for me. It showed the depth of men's emotions that they do not show the world because they are profiled to be stoic. This book unmasks the guise commonly adopted by men. It shows men's vulnerability, the facade they must keep, and the hardships and strengths they carry. The book is exceptionally edited, so the reading was seamless. For that, I am grateful to the author. The book is very educational and an eye-opener into the world of men. It is different from regular books and their stories. Instead, it is thought-provoking.

I rate it five out of five stars. Since it is a novel about adventure, I recommend it to readers who like good adventure novels, both young and old alike. I am sure they would appreciate it.
