Summary
“The best book on hell ever written." (Dr. Eastman, founding member and president, America’s National Prayer Committee)
Anthony DeStefano, the best-selling author of A Travel Guide to Heaven, takes us on an exploration of hell, the devil, demons, and evil itself. Written with the clarity and logic of C. S. Lewis and the vivid storytelling of John Bunyan and J. R. R. Tolkien, Hell: A Guide takes up questions such as:
- Is hell a place or a state of being?
- What does hell look like?
- What kind of suffering do people in hell experience?
- What are the devil and demons really like?
Rooted in solid, orthodox Christian scholarship, this one-of-a-kind audiobook investigates everything there is to know about one of the most fascinating, yet often misunderstood, subjects of all time.
Additional biblical references are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Pure Fiction
The writing itself is of good enough quality, and the narrator brings it to life very well. It's the content which lets it down somewhat.
This book is full of all sorts of unsubstantiated claims and deals with complex issues via imagination instead of good reasoning.
For instance, early on the book deals with the moral problem "how can a loving god send people to hell for eternity for finite crimes?"
The author asserts that hell was made for demons. Then, since they (apparently) can't change their minds and are spiritual beings, the soul (also a spiritual being) cannot change its mind and so deserves, even chooses eternal hell (as the individual apparently loses free will on death).
The book deals with the problem of Evil and despite showing a basic awareness that sociology and abnormal psychology exist, the author insists on the existence of "metaphysical Evil."
Instead of actually going over what the Bible says about Hell (which is actually plenty), the author asks you to presuppose that a literal Hell exists where people will suffer for eternity. While this is a majority opinion among evangelicals, it would have been nice to have heard more about other views on Hell.
The book also makes many unsubstantiated claims about how human reasoning works, and which parts the soul is responsible for, and which parts the mind is responsible for. But that is just a small part of the unsubstantiated claims made about the properties of souls.
The author doesn't cite which biblical verses he is using to reach his conclusion (not sure if he does in the physical copy), but rather seems to draw extensively on sources from centuries after the Bible was written, as the book seems to say that demons are in hell already, and not "bound in darkness" as it would say in Jude (which is still in the accompanying pdf). The book also infers a lot from just speculation on the nature of the soul and the parable of Lazarus and the rich man.
Overall, I have been just about enjoying it. The narrator gives a delivery which sounds like a true crime podcast, which is really helping me to make the most of the poorly backed-up claims.

Excellent book. Unexpected pleasant surprise
Even if the author is not a theologian, he is well documented as what he says coincides with the Doctrine and the writings of Early Fathers and Saints. A must.
