About this listen

The most powerful psychological tactics are being used against you—right now. Are you ready to take back control?

What if I told you that your thoughts, decisions, and even emotions aren’t as “free” as you think? Every day, corporations, marketers, and master manipulators use covert psychological techniques to control what you buy, who you trust, and even how you see yourself.

But what if you could decode these hidden tactics—and use them to your advantage?

In this explosive book, you’ll uncover:

  • The Dark Triad traits that make people dangerously persuasive
  • Gaslighting & psychological warfare—how manipulators distort reality
  • The power of fear, suggestion, and mind games used to control society
  • Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) & hypnosis—how to rewire the subconscious

I grabbed this out of curiosity, but wow—it actually helped me recognize behaviors I’d been brushing off for years, especially in work settings. It’s not just theory either; I caught myself using a few of the persuasion tips in daily conversations without even trying. Super useful if you’re into understanding how people tick.

As a social worker, I’m always on the lookout for tools to help my clients build awareness and resilience, and this audiobook was eye-opening in all the right ways. It breaks down how manipulation actually works. It’s packed with real-life examples that make the concepts click. It doesn’t just expose the manipulation, it empowers you with ways to recognize and respond to it. It digs into things like the Dark Triad personality traits, NLP, and even societal mind games in a way that’s clear, direct, and relevant, especially for people who may already feel like they’re being pulled in too many directions emotionally or mentally.

I’ve already recommended it to a few clients who struggle with boundary-setting or have been impacted by manipulative relationships. It gives them language for what they’ve experienced, and that’s huge. If you work in the helping professions or just want to protect yourself and others from psychological tactics that often go unnoticed, this is one to add to your library. Eye-opening, practical, and honestly kind of empowering.

Great for Anyone Looking to Survive Manipulation

Look, I think there’s something that’s always been subconsciously fascinating to a lot of us about dark psychology. But I asked for this book mainly to understand exactly what might be used by individuals against me, in order to formulate tactics to protect myself. I love that Dylan Blake’s book addresses this directly, and exposes topics beyond just the common “gaslighting“ that everybody associates with dark psychology. I found, for instance, that love bombing is a huge thing I’ve been a victim of in the past, and I definitely feel better equipped to handle manipulative tactics in the future! I also discovered that I accidentally engage in using dark psychology tactics sometimes, and it was not a good look! It made me more aware and decide to be more conscientious of how I go about conversations. So grateful for Dylan and his work to prepare us to feel confident and in control

Had no clue how much I needed to look out for…now I do!

I listened to this while organizing my closet and found myself pausing a few times just to think about what I heard. The narrator had a clear voice that made even the heavier parts easy to take in. Some of the ideas on persuasion and body language really made me more aware of how people behave. A few sections repeated a bit but it helped the points stick. It gave me a better understanding of how influence works and how to spot it in real life.

This was certainly very insightful and fascinating. It was very easy to listen and enriched my understanding of how relationships work and how we can protect us from being manipulated by both narcissists and sosiopaths. Although the title looks heavy it is a positive read giving positive aspects to "dark" or rather hidden psychology. A great read and well narrated. I recommend it thoroughly.

I picked this up out of curiosity, but it ended up giving me a way deeper understanding of how people think and act. Some of the tactics are intense, but knowing how they work really helped me notice patterns in conversations and social situations. I’m not using it to manipulate anyone, but it’s great for spotting when someone else might be trying to. Easy to read and surprisingly practical in everyday life.

I found this audiobook both fascinating and a little unsettling, in a good way. It breaks down how influence and persuasion really work, and explains the tactics people use, sometimes without us even noticing. The tone is clear and direct, and it made me more aware of how certain behaviors or conversations can steer decisions. It’s not about using these ideas in a harmful way, but more about understanding them so you can protect yourself and communicate better.

Fascinating look at human behavior

I always thought I was too smart to be manipulated turns out, I wasn’t. This audiobook opened my eyes to how often subtle psychological tactics are used in everyday life. It didn’t just explain the methods, it made me think differently about the choices I make. I’m way more aware now, and even feel more confident standing my ground in tough situations. Definitely worth listening to if you want to stay sharp and protect your peace.
