Resumen del Editor

Becoming a Barbarian won't teach you how to swing a battle axe or crush your enemies (so that you can see them driven before you and then hear the lamentation of their women).

Becoming a Barbarian is a follow-up to Donovan's cult hit, The Way of Men. Good, modern, civilized Western men today are expected to think like "citizens of the world" - obligated to everyone and no one. Natural, meaningful tribal connections have been substituted with synthetic, disposable consumer identities. Without a sense of who they are and what group they have a place in, modern men are becoming increasingly detached, disoriented, vulnerable, and ever more easily manipulated.

Becoming a Barbarian attacks the emasculated emptiness of life in the modern West and shows men how to think tribally again. It reveals the weaknesses of universalistic thinking, and challenges listeners to become the kind of men who could go all-in and devote their lives to one group of people above all others.

Becoming a Barbarian is about finding a tribe, finding a purpose, and choosing to live the kind of life that undermines the narrative of the Empire.

Made me think. Made me laugh. Made me act.

If you have delicate sensibilities, this book is not for you. If you feel that what has become the societal norm just doesn't fit, you might want to give this a read.

Not easily digested

This is an uncomfortable book, with points that you will disagree with.
It is also a book written, seemingly, with naught but honesty.
It is likely worth some amount of your time and consideration.

good primer ...

enjoyed the book although the authors narration could be a little melodramatic at times.

love the concept already and am pasted where the book puts you ... was hoping on details or tips and pitfalls in building or searching for YOUR OWN tribe.

Not as good as way of men

not as good as the way of men, but still interesting if you want to become more like an outlaw

Life-Defining

Jack Donovan reads his own books and does a great job. you know there is only sincerity and truth in his words. If you don't like what he is saying, then you will never get it.

More on the way of man

A good book, not as inspiring as The way of men was, maybe just my take. Although great thoughts and ideas, I agree wholeheartedly with the author.

Awesome book

Very good, thought provoking, listening to it made question a lot of my beliefs and validated some of thoughts I have.

Excellent book, will read this again!

Excellent book, will read it again. Remain men, always!!! There is no other way to live!

Mindset Calibration

I found myself analyzing my past and understanding what the future could be for me with the perspectives I learned from this book.

My favorite audiobook thus far

I have read lots of books and I have almost a solid eight days of listening time just on audible, but this one is my favorite. I’ve listened to it three times and I have also listened to The Way of Men and A More Complete Beast. This is also the first time I’ve reviewed a book but I felt obligated.
