Publisher's summary

When murdered sinners fail to show up in hell, it's up to Salim Ghadafar, an atheist warrior forced to solve problems for the goddess of death, to track down the missing souls. In order to do so, Salim will need to descend into the anarchic city of Kaer Maga, following a trail that ranges from hell's iron cities to the gates of heaven itself. Along the way he'll be aided by a host of otherworldly creatures, a streetwise teenager, and two warriors of the mysterious Iridian Fold. But when the missing souls are the scum of the Earth and the victims devils themselves, can anyone really be trusted?

too many characters

It was a good story buried IMHO with too many incomprehensible names, places and types of alien life. I think there was a good story hiding here but...

Better than expected, and expectations were high!

It would have been easy for this story to follow predictable paths, and lean on common crutches. Alternatively, the author could have been contrarian, obviously going out of their way to avoid common plot beats. However, this story does neither. It's refreshingly novel, with twists that surprise without feeling silly or forced. Also, it takes itself seriously enough, but not so serious as to be cringeworthy.

Overall a respectful, entertaining treatment of pathfinder / D&D material that would probably be interesting to general fantasy readers with no background in the specific fantasy licences.

Mind blown!

Loved this book!

The insight Into the Pathfinder planes and the scale of balance that souls! play among those said planes. Is out of this world and mind blowing! A must read for any DM/GM interested in the planes that make up The Pathfinder realms.

To Hell and Back Again

If you could sum up The Redemption Engine in three words, what would they be?

A good read to be sure. His ideas of angels and devils is unique.

What about Ray Porter’s performance did you like?

He always knows how to keep the character in the emotion of the moment . I've enjoyed almost everything I listen too of his.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No ir is far to large and too much to absorbe concidering it is a trek through both Heavens and Hells.

Any additional comments?

I also enjoyed his second book but found it somewhat predictable from the start story line wise.

Pretty awesome listen!

Overall a very solid and well constructed work, definitely worth the price. As a fan of the various different literary works for the dungeons and dragons franchise, this book definitely has the same feel, just with Pathfinder mythos instead. Luckily you don't have to know the world of Pathfinder to enjoy this as well, a rather enjoyable, well paced epic fantasy adventure all the way through. Plus the main character is also quite interesting as well, definitely not the run of the mill protagonist for sure.
