Mata a tu león es una exploración entre padre e hijo, a las preguntas a las que los hombres jóvenes se enfrentan cuando se acercan a la edad adulta-preguntas que siguen acosando a muchos hombres aún en la mediana edad.

El título proviene de la tradición Masai en la que un joven finalmente sabe que se ha convertido en un hombre cuando ha matado a un león.

El estilo del libro es conversacional. Por lo general Sam toma la iniciativa al contar una historia de sus años en la universidad, graduación, cortejando a una mujer, de su casamiento, o de la búsqueda de una carrera, y John responde con el consejo de un padre y sus propias historias de "comienzo en la edad adulta."

Un diálogo entre un hombre joven que representa a los Millennials y un hombre maduro ofreciendo conocimiento y sabiduría sobre las questiones eternas de la jornada hacia la edad adulta.
