About this listen

Death is only the beginning. A man with a shattered memory remembers his death. From the moment of his death, he goes on a wild ride through the after life where he slowly is broken down mentally by dark forces. The dark forces lead him to a gate called the Gate of Redemption. The gate thrusts him to a world where people gain super human powers given to them by angels to fight the most evil being that lives in the new world, the Demon Lord Lucifer.

Not for the faint of heart—but for those who want depth, emotion, and darkness in their fantasy, this audiobook delivers. The internal conflict the protagonist faces is just as important as the external battles. I was particularly impressed by how themes of sin, redemption, and identity are explored. The Demon Lord Lucifer isn't just a villain—he represents something more terrifying. The quality of narration is top-notch, giving a cinematic edge to the whole experience. Curtis Yost doesn’t hold back. It's raw, but also strangely hopeful.

This audiobook doesn’t shy away from intensity, and it’s all the better for it. The idea of superhuman powers granted by angels sounds simple on paper, but in execution, it’s complex and deeply symbolic. The mental breakdown the protagonist suffers is portrayed with realism and empathy. There’s a constant tension between faith, power, and madness that holds the story together. Marcus Herndon’s narration is passionate and immersive. If you enjoy psychological depth in your fantasy, this is a must-listen.

If you're used to fun, game-like isekai stories, prepare for something much deeper. This is not your average portal fantasy. Curtis Yost’s take on the genre involves spiritual death, existential horror, and cosmic conflict. The protagonist isn’t some hero dropped into a world with cheat codes—he’s broken, confused, and barely holding onto sanity. The way his mental state shifts throughout the audiobook is one of the most compelling aspects. Herndon’s ability to convey that descent is a performance worth praising. Phenomenal.

This audiobook takes isekai and flips it on its head. Instead of just being transported to another world, the main character dies, forgets who he is, and gets pulled through a psychological gauntlet. The idea of angels granting powers to fight Lucifer is both chilling and inspiring. The world feels massive, yet intimate in how it affects the protagonist’s mind. Curtis Yost has created something that feels mythic in scope, yet personal in execution. Marcus Herndon captures that perfectly with a nuanced performance. I hope this is only the beginning of this saga—because I’m hooked.

This audiobook is ambitious, intelligent, and creative. I was deeply impressed by the originality of the story and the philosophical depth behind the madness. It’s not just about fantasy—it’s about internal battles, belief systems, and what happens when you lose everything, even yourself. My only minor gripe is that the transition between mental collapse and supernatural plotlines can be jarring in a few places. Still, the atmosphere is rich, the narration gripping, and the story memorable. I’ll be following this saga for sure.

Dark and Deep, Just Shy of Perfect

I couldn’t stop listening. From the moment the protagonist remembers his death, I was pulled into a whirlwind of emotions and fear. The atmosphere is thick with dread, but also with a sense of discovery. The Gate of Redemption is one of the most interesting concepts I’ve encountered in fantasy. The way mental unraveling is portrayed here is terrifying but also beautifully written. Marcus Herndon adds layers of meaning through his voice. I haven’t heard anything like this. If you want dark fantasy with substance, this is it.
