In the world today, we find ourselves focused too much on making it up the corporate ladder and fulfilling societal expectations, to the extent of not living fully fulfilled lives. This has sometimes resulted in depression and higher suicide rates. This is the kind of situation Sam and his friends find themselves in after completing law school. 

Man Mission by Eytan Uliel is not only an interesting book filled with adventure but also thought provoking on social issues affecting society. The author is not fulfilled with his legal practice, and he is exhausted from the mind-numbing routine of the legal world. Since they had always planned on traveling with his friend Sam but never did, one day he suggests that they actually do it. They chose to hike in New Zealand. This first-man mission is not a walk in the park, but despite the challenges, like being hurt, they decide it's worth it. They decide to always go on a man mission every year. To find out the happenings of the next fifteen-man missions, get yourself a copy of this amazing book.

I loved how the book is filled with suspense, and I could not wait to find out what happens in the next adventure. The author also went into great length to describe each event vividly, thus helping the reader create a mental picture of what is happening. Another admirable aspect of the book is how the characters are able to strike a balance between having fun, taking risks, managing their careers, and also being good parents and responsible husbands. The author has also used easy-to-understand language that makes it easy for the reader. This book couldn't have been complete without the wonderful job of the editors, as the book is exceptionally edited. I didn't find any errors.

I did not find anything particular to dislike about the book. It was an endless adventure without leaving my house. My only concern is the quotations from the Bible at the start of every chapter that might disrupt readers who are not Christians, but I believe the book is suitable for everyone.

I rate the book 5 out of 5 stars because of how effective it was in passing on the intended message. The author has clearly shown that it is possible to strike a balance between career and family life. I recommend the book to people who love the outdoors and adventure.

I like that the book is full of suspense as well as the way the characters are developed. It's good that you pointed that out in an interesting review.
