If you want to play the Game, you've got to know the Rules.

In his international bestseller The Game, Neil Strauss delved into the secret world of pick-up artists--men who have created a science out of the art of seduction. Not only did he reveal the techniques that they had developed, but he became a master of The Game, and the world's No. 1 PUA, as Style.

Now, in his first follow-up to The Game, comes an extraordinary package: A lavishly produced, two-volume pocket-size set that every pickup artist--accomplished or aspiring--will need to have. The first book, The Stylelife Challenge, is the manual Strauss thought he'd never write: the ultimate guide to landing the woman of your dreams. Bound in white leatherette, it offers an in-depth 30-day program, Strauss challenges readers to confront their insecurities and overcome them through a process of rigorous self-examination, briefings and field missions.

In the second book, Strauss takes readers into the dark side of The Game. Bound in black leatherette, The Style Diaries offers a series of tales of seduction and sexual (mis)adventure. From accidentally getting married during a drunken night in Reykjavik, to luring a famous musician's granddaughter into a threesome; from conducting a keenly felt and tender relationship over email, to the stress and frustration of the torturous and highly unorthodox "30 Day Sex Experiment," The Style Diaries takes you further into the seduction underworld than ever before, and delves where The Game never dared to tread: into the even more complicated rules of relationships.

A good start	Customer Rating:
Loved The Game, but thought Rules could have included more information. Also recommend "Secrets of the A Game" by Logan Edwards and "Mystery Method" by Mystery.

A disapointment!

Customer Rating:

I first read the game when I heard of a friend talking about it. I tell you what it was a comical book it was hilarious. What made it even more entertaining is being a hypnotist and seeing waking hypnosis in play, fantastic! This one though. WHAT HAPPENED! This is for a loser who is social incompetent. The author tried to turn it into a self help thing. I read about 5 pages and through it out! What a waste! Look no offense to the guys out there that have trouble talking to women or have trouble picking up, but it all has to do with your communications skills to your self and certainty when it comes to picking up. If you were CERTAIN that when spoke to a girl that she liked you, I'm telling they will like you. You don't have to use gimmicks and steps that are given in these two books.

The Roadmap to Social Success

Customer Rating:

If you have the courage to follow this program then you will figure out the world of dating! But the biggest thing I feel you will get out of this book if self confidence. That's the number 1 key to meeting and attracting women! Get this book and learn it, know it and live it in that order. You will not be disappointed unless your a Chump. If you don't get "it" then your helpless and a true Chode! You have no more excuses!

Has a purpose, but that's it

Customer Rating:

I read "The Game" and naturally wanted to follow it up with "Rules of the Game" when I found out Neil got back into the pick-up scene. Turns out, it's a little less interesting the second time around when it seems like he's doing it out of notoriety. I mean, it was interesting the first time because he was a no one getting everything he wanted--both physically and professionally--as a result of making use of the tools he is advertising here. Then he has a major epiphany and moves on with his life. Turns out since there's still money to be made, he's back. I'm not bitter, just bored.

worth 100 times the price of the book

Customer Rating:

Neil Strauss has gone through a lot of stuff to become what he's become today. He has studied books on seduction, persuasion, communication and psychology...etc; he has spent time and money getting personal trainers to work on body language, fitness, and his voice. After years of experimenting and implementing these knowledge, he knows what works best. Now this book has combined the wisdom of all that knowledge into a step-by-step program designed to make you a better person. The 30-day challenge is more like a 30-step program to me. Each day (step) there would be some new things to work on. Some of the steps would take me weeks to really apprehend. But after going through all of them, I can say the book made me a more confident, fun, and socially-adept person that I never thought possible. Considering the extensive effort you have to put on to become a better person, whether or not to pay 17 dollars on a book should probably be the least you need to worry about right now.
