THE STORY

The zealous female warriors of the Order of Our Lady of Martyrs are the most renowned and battle-hungry of all Adepta Sororitas. Assigned to the Quintus Fleet of the Indomitus Crusade, Helewise and her sisters follow an ancient pilgrimage route to rediscover and liberate the sanctuary-world of Cion, once the sacred stronghold of their order. As they follow in the footsteps of Saint Katherine herself, their faith will be sorely tested as they attempt to discover what happened to their sisters deployed in the demon-infested sectors beyond the Cicatrix Maledictum. As their mission goes from disaster to disaster and the Emperor's voice grows ever fainter, the Battle Sisters must rely on their bolters, their blades and their unbreakable bonds to fend off the darkness of Imperium Nihilus.
