An amazing Sororitas novel
Emma Gregory continues to be the absolute best voice actor that GW has in their roster. This book is amazing and I love every single character. Thank you to both the author and the voice actor for such a great experience.

Exceptional Storytelling
in the past I have found Sororitas stories to be hit and miss, sometimes finding it difficult to care enough about the characters to go on. in this case, I feel the writing is exceptional, and the narration equally thrilling - clear distinction between characters' voices made it a pleasure to listen to.
Considering i purchased this based on fhe runtime, taking a chance at high relative value, I am utterly impressed. In my case, releasing the stories in one volume appears to be a good strategy to get me to purchase the newest sequel.

good use of short stories
give the flavour of this order by using a bunch of short stories and novellas. Not as grim dark as the saints collection but you can't have character development if they keep dying.

great work from the va makes it a good listen
As always Emma Gregory with a great performance whenever I've heard a story she's voiced with a range of voices which help me differentiate characters and the squad personality. I did enjoy the stories it kept me interested for most of it, I did like the little bits on the orders and some little differences from each. All in all not a bad book probably a 7.5/10.

Nuns with Guns
Sisters of battle are a very different faction in the 40k universe. This book is a collection of stories which give the reader a flavour of the world and rights of the sisters. Nicely written and read with enthusiasm. Just a couple of errors with the editing and the hymn singing was a bit too loud at the start of the book (especially with ear pods) but worth perseverance 👍

Disappointing, annoying, and unprofessional
The Good (or, at least, the closest thing to good): The story is just about passable. It's quite dull. There's mediocre bolter porn in here, paper-thin world-building, and very little else.
The Bad: [1.] Hymn-singing is a thing that the Sisters of Battle do. Sure, okay; I accept that. But having the narrator BELT it out at you that way, time and time and time again makes for awful listening. [2.] What on earth was that random Ork short story doing in there, part-way through, before the last chapter?
The Ugly: I've found at least 3 completely-missed recording errors which should have been picked up in a proper listen through and/or edit - which this clearly didn't receive. The narrator screws up a line, pauses, and tries again. Ridiculous for an audiobook.
Avoid. Seriously.
