Adventure and fun are two simple ways to bring together people of different walks of life in order to achieve a particular goal. This is what four best friends do. They ordain an annual adventure trip to a new exotic place, to weird new cultures and to test out their manliness against a scale of a flimsy Pink bracelet. Man Mission is a 15-year-old tradition that has helped these four men journey through the difficulties of love, marriage, children, and employment together. Together, they suffer through chaffing, insect bites, dislocated bones, and broken hearts in order to navigate the labyrinth that is life.

The most impressive aspect of this book is the characters. They are interesting people trying to live mundane lives by making them a bit intriguing. Their wives cannot seem to control them and this causes some rife in the relationships. However, they are insightful and loveable. Eytan Uliel could not have chosen a better character list for his book. They replicate the quality of life that many men are stuck in, and they offer ways to e rid of the boredom.

This book is highly descriptive. The author clearly writes about the group’s expeditions to different countries in the world. He also promotes the visited countries culture while trying to introduce the travelers’ crazy antics. Man Mission is carefully balanced with somber situations being cancelled out by humorous events. The author has also promoted the clear and suitable transition of events; from the past to present, from one event to another; it is easy to follow through. There is a distinctive amount of emotions running through the book. These four men are trying to juggle love life and marriage. As we all know, marriage is not a bed of roses, prompting emotional discussions, arguments, and even epiphanies.

The only shortcoming was the arrangement of the book. As you begin reading, you realize that you need to flip a couple of pages before you get to the actual reading material. Moreover, after reading the said page, the next one is too tiny. I wish this would be rectified during publishing, as it makes reading dreary and complicated. This book contains a couple of profane words that may not be appropriate for some readers. This book appears to be exceptionally well-edited, as it does not contain any errors.

For the above reasons, I rate this book four out of four stars. I would recommend this book to a mature audience of adventure loving fans. It is also a good book that recommends the best manly travelling locations.
