"One of the most admired men in the world of seduction" (The New York Times) teaches average guys how to approach, attract and begin intimate relationships with beautiful women

For every man who always wondered why some guys have all the luck, Mystery, considered by many to be the world's greatest pickup artist, finally reveals his secrets for finding and forming relationships with some of the world's most beautiful women. Mystery gained mainstream attention for his role in Neil Strauss's New York Times bestselling exposé, The Game. Now he has written the definitive handbook on the art of the pickup.

He developed his unique method over years of observing social dynamics and interacting with women in clubs to learn how to overcome the guard shield that many women use to deflect come-ons from "average frustrated chumps."

The Mystery Method: How to Get Beautiful Women Into Bed shares tips such as:

*Give more attention to her less attractive friend at first, so your target will get jealous and try to win your attention.
*Always approach a target within 3 seconds of noticing her. If a woman senses your hesitation, her perception of your value will be lower.
*Don't be picky. Approach as many groups of people in a bar as you can and entertain them with fun conversation. As you move about the room, positive perception of you will grow. Now it's easy to meet anyone you want.
*Smile. Guys who don't get laid, don't smile.

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Never at risk of being called humble, Mystery (aka Erik von Markovik), heralded as one of the best pick-up artists in the country, has created a science of seduction. His meticulously researched system, the "Mystery Method," offers advice to men of every ilk, along with complex charts, social science jargon (e.g., Dynamic Social Homostasis and DHV—Demonstrations of Higher Value) and potty humor Mystery comes off as forceful, provocative and excessively arrogant, but one thing is clear: he's good at what he does. You'll laugh, you'll scoff, but in the end, you'll probably learn something. (Feb.)

A Lifestyle and Worldview Changing Masterpiece

November 5, 2016

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Contrary to it's title, The Mystery Method: How to Get Beautiful Women Into Bed is more than just a book on how to get better with woman. It's a gateway into understanding, and manipulating, the fundamentals of human interaction. It's also a lifestyle and perspective changing book. I never expected that reading this book would lead me to a such a drastic life epiphany. As another reviewer pointed out, its like suddenly becoming aware of the matrix.

Mystery gets into deep reasons behind why people behave the way they do, using evolutionary psychology and personal experience to back up his claims. As you digest the material you will start to be able to read and influence people like never before. You'll wonder how you could have missed so much.

Mystery also devels into what it means to be truly be human and be alive. Again the goal of this book is to not just to get you better with woman but to have an overall better and more impactful life. To realize your own self worth and no longer allow your life to be hinged on the opinions and actions of others.

However with all this knowledge you risk opening a can of worms. If your not careful you may lose yourself in the process and social interactions will feel less fulfilling and exciting. Mystery teaches you things that are unknown to 99% of the population, and you may at times wish you could unlearn things.

However at the end of the day the wisdom, knowledge and insight you gain from reading this book far outweighs any negatives you might experience. If anything the skills you learn from this book will trickle into other areas of your life, and should you so choose, improve those areas drastically.

I wouldn't recommend you reading mysterys book without first reading his colleagues Neil Strausses two books on the subject. "The Game" is what jump started the whole pickup industry and serves as a great intro to the community. It is more of story telling book. His other book "Rules Of The Game" is more of a how to book and the Style Life Challege section is meant to be a life changing program.

Once you've read the aforementioned Strauss books, and completed the Style Life Challenge, you'll be more much more prepared for Mysterys techniques and insights. If the seduction community books were weighted on a scale Mystery's would be like a graduate level book, and your better of working your way up to it.

But once you do, and you really began to understand and master Mysterys social dynamics and lifestyle changes you will not be disappointed. It will seem like you experience the world in an entire different and good way. Some people may even become jealous (a sign your doing good) and thanks to mystery you'll know how to handle those people. If done right you will find the best version of your self. And you'll actually be glad that your were socially awkward and sucked with the opposite sex. Because it lead you onto this road of self improvement and you'll find yourself "flying by" and suppressing the "naturals". Because you had to work hard to obtain something that came easy to others you left them in the dirt.

Other essential books (if you have the time) to read is "No More Mr Nice Guy", "The Solution to Social Anxiety", "Modern Romance", "Text Appeal For Guys", "Survival of The S***test", "The Geeks Shall Inherit The Earth", "The Like Switch", "The Selfish Gene" & "The Rational Male" (volumes 1 & 2). Each of these books fits into the theme of self improvement, and understanding why people behave they way they do and how you should behave. And of course bettering your romance/game. Again I feel Mysterys Book is not meant to be read in a vacuum. It's a significant puzzle piece in finding the best "you" there is.

The Mystery Method, as well as the aforementioned Strauss books, have been amoung the most influential in my life and for many other people as well. In hindsight I would have never thought that reading a few books on improving my skills with woman would lead to a lifestyle epiphany and change of such great proportion.

My last piece of advice though would be to be careful who you share this knowledge with. When so many other people suck it makes it easier for you to stand out. A good magician, which is Mystery is, never reaveals their secrets.

It's Mystery, father of Pickup

February 6, 2018

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I started reading this book on my way to my first bootcamp with Mystery. It was an eye opening experience both from reading the book (finally understanding how the world works and why women function the way they do) and with spending time in Mystery's presence, learning that social dynamics and that everything around us is just an illusion, he demonstrated this many times in many different ways, but when he stared you deeply in the eyes, his words had so much more power behind them than any book can explain with just mere letters. The book has all the knowledge he teaches, all of the steps, but the book does lack actual content, actual routines, stories, openers, etc.. these you will need to go online for or possibly read other books. Once you have the MM down, it's just a matter of getting routines, content, etc.. to learn solid game, but you need to learn the fundamentals before you start so you can positively improve. This is the fundamentals.

This is actually still a relevant book

April 22, 2018

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

This book may be outdated and fact is it contains very cheesy lines, but it provides practical examples on how to interact with women (and men). It has helped me a lot, especially on how to “open sets”. Say what you want about the pick up community but this kind of advise helps for every kind of social interaction.

"How To" manual on human behavior.

February 28, 2013

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Markovic distills predictable human behaviors down to a "system", then show you how to use this system and apply it to the dating scene. Does it work?, yes! It helps you take your actions, and crafts them in such a way that the other persons reactions are much more positive and responsive. Is it magic?, no, but if you follow the game plan, the outcome of any social interaction will be better than if you "ad-libed" your way through it doing all the wrong things. I use the Black jack analogy. Would you hit on 17? No, the odds don't favor you, so you stay. Do you know when to double down? Can you count cards? Each or these actions increases your adds overtime. So does this method. Learn to abandon "buzz killing" bad habits, and replace them with more productive ones and watch what happens. I casual date I met at a bar, found this book in my night stand the next morning. She immediately started to gripe about this "stuff" doesn't work, etc. I assured her it does and said I can prove it to you with your answer to one question. (She took the bait, see, she was already being verbally manipulated). That question was..."Where did you wake up this morning?".

it's an art baby!

May 10, 2014

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

This book is neither better nor worse than other pick up manuals which are all designed to introduce you into the arts of seduction, but they give you not enough for anything practical to use. The idea is to sort of wet your appetite and convince you to buy expensive videos, workshops, etc. Does it work? It does if you are willing to spend time, effort and money. Pickup is an art or a skill, and like every art and skill requires significant learning curve. Be prepared to change your lifestyle, ideology and to devote at least 2 years of your life to this, before you start seeing definite results. Your looks and age are unimportant although grooming and lack of insecurities always matter. The better programs individually assess students and root out insecurity first. Some of the Mystery students, who created their own workshops and wrote their own books on seduction introduced new methods that are quite effective, but they all work if you devote them some time. Good luck to all of yea fokkers, lol!
