'This gripping book is destined to become THE book about Andrew Tate' Jon Ronson

'This is the behind the scenes investigation of the world's most famous misogynist (and one of the most famous people) on the internet . . . A fascinating insight into the power of his cult of personality and the dangerous tactics used to silence his critics' Esquire

In 2022, Andrew Tate went from a little-known kickboxer and failed reality TV star to a lifestyle icon for legions of men and boys, and a figure that would define a new era of misogyny. Tate started the year as a fringe internet celebrity, but by August he was the most googled man in the world. In that same month, Matt Shea and Jamie Tahsin gained access to his Bucharest compound and infamous War Room, making a documentary that would result in the first women coming forward to accuse him publicly of sexual and physical violence. Tate would end the year in a Romanian jail, facing charges of human trafficking, rape and being part of an organised crime group. But the investigations wouldn't stop there.

Part Gonzo journalism, part masculinity rabbit hole, this book takes you on Shea and Tahsin's journey to reveal the dark secrets of Andrew Tate, the machine that brought him here, and the ideology he has unleashed on a generation of young men.

'A fascinating and disturbing investigation' Ian Hislop

'A sobering, strange and eye-opening look into the toxic manosphere. It should be required reading for anybody worried about the rise of incel culture and Andrew Tate' Zing Tsjeng

Compelling true crime tale

As a forensic and clinical psychologist, I love reading true crime tales, especially if they take place in my native Romania. I finally understand the situation with this person and his following. It's much more than misoginy and incel culture, it's also a cult. The victims are not only the women, but also the young men they prey upon. Fantastic journalistic work!

Entertaining, Informative, and an Incredible Cache of Cringe!

I wish every young man who follows Tate would read this. Not only does it give an insider perspective on the harm Tate and his cohort cause, but it also exposes just how dorky they are. From Andrew to Tristan to Iggy, all of them are total losers. This book was so entertaining and a perfect dismantling of the cringeworthy “advice” from the manosphere.
