Review of Man Mission
[Following is a volunteer review of "Man Mission" by Eytan Uliel.]
What does it mean to be a man? A question every man must ask himself at one point in his life. Whichever answer he comes up with shapes the rest of his life.
In Man Mission, four young men decide to set out on week-long adventures to challenge and enjoy themselves. They go to various destinations where they perform crazy feats, escape from their regular lives, and try to figure out what it means to be a man. They hike in New Zealand, ride bikes in Japan and Australia, Kayak in Fiji, take a safari in South Africa, and so much more. Their travels are full of fun, injuries, and reflections. Over a decade and a half, they finish college, get married, have kids, and build great careers. However, they find themselves questioning their choices, purpose, and willpower. What more should they do to be better men? Their journey to find meaning and answers in their lives might surprise you. Grab your copy to join in on the adventure.
I enjoyed reading Man Mission by Eytan Uliel a lot. It has many attributes that I like and a few I do not like. Firstly, it has three parts: a beginning, a middle, and an end. Each of these has five chapters. Each chapter covers a different episode of the Man Mission. I like this structure. It ensures the story is well-written, enjoyable, and easy to understand. Each chapter starts with a suspenseful hook that pulls you into the story. Eytan's storytelling capabilities are good. He uses vivid descriptions, rhymes, and even alliteration to spice up the story. I found it hard to put down the book whenever I picked it up.
An illustrative map comes at the start of each chapter. These maps helped me visualize the routes the characters took. There are also numerous quotes from famous people and the Bible that give a preamble of what is to come in the chapters that follow them. There is humor in the book as well. Character development is good. I like how self-aware the main character becomes as the story progresses. Finally, I like how each chapter ends with a record of vital statistics which note down how the characters got around, where they stayed, and other relevant information to help readers keep track of the story’s events.
I do not appreciate the amount of profanity contained in this book. It also has some intimate scenes. If you cannot stomach this, I recommend you skip it. If you can, I hope you get inspired by the story and perhaps find an answer to the question: what does it mean to be a man?
Editing is superb. I only found one error in the book, and I commend the editorial team. I recommend this novel to men seeking clarity, men who want to be inspired by other men’s stories, men who need a slight nudge in the right direction, and lovers of adventure and travel-based stories.
I rate Man Mission 4 out of 4 stars for its entertaining, teaching, and inspiring nature. I have learned a lot from the reflections of the characters.
