Summary
An Adepta Sororitas Audiobook
Sister Superior Augusta of the Order of the Bloody Rose and her squad find themselves battling a Genestealer Cult with its claws under the planet’s skin – and racing to prevent the arrival of a Tyranid Hive Fleet.
LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE
Sister Augusta of the Order of the Bloody Rose returns in a new Adepta Sororitas novel and must fight to prevent one of the Emperor’s own favoured worlds from becoming prey for the Tyranids.
THE STORY
Opal is a gleaming shrine world of saints and soldiers, beloved of the Emperor Himself. Sent to retrieve the skull of the revered Saint Veres, Sister Superior Augusta of the Order of the Bloody Rose and her squad find themselves in the midst of the capital’s holiest festival, a time of reverence and celebration. But all is not well – despite what its planetary leaders would have Augusta believe, political danger bubbles under the surface, and rebel attacks gnaw away at the city’s outskirts. The greatest threat, however, is yet to come.
As it becomes horrifyingly apparent that a Genestealer Cult has its claws under the planet’s skin, the Sisters realise that can mean only one thing: a hive fleet is on its way to Opal, bringing with it the planet’s doom.

Who needs female space Marines
Takes a while to get going but the characters are interesting and the story is worth listening to.
Overall I enjoyed this one.

Not for everyone, but is a unique place in 40k
Some of the characters are a little less defined than other 40k series, and the singing in the audiobook might put off others, but the faith based sisterhood of combat and closeness has a special place for me and is well portrayed here.

A thrilling tale with an epic finale
The execution was outstanding. The chanting of the litanies, the fury in the sisters voices, the madness in the heretics. A truly enjoyable experience

No Lord, No
Chanting. Singing. Catterwailing. I'm sorry but this run was awful and greatly detracted from the story. The story was good. But very poor narration.

A must for any Sororitas fan or curious.
An absolutely amazing book with several unexpected turns. I went in with a open mind as it was my first Sororitas book and it delivered.
Performance was spot on.
