In The Emperor’s Name!
In the grim nightmare future of the 41st millennium, the witch-hunting zealots of the Sisters of Battle stand between humanity and damnation. The Ecclesiarchy is the great church of the Imperium; founded on the worship of the God-Emperor of Mankind, it guards the sanctity of the Imperial Creed and protects the celestial truth of the Emperor’s divinity, and its ideals are enforced by the bolters and flamers of the Orders Militant of the Adepta Sororitas.
Bane of heretics and traitors, the Sororitas are a a zealous army that enforces the will of the holy Ecclesiarchy. From the elite Celestian warriors to the berserk Sisters Repentia, they are the strong arm of the Emperor’s Church and the brutal hammer of witches.
Trained in all forms of combat, indoctrinated in the fanatical Imperial Faith, Sister of Battle Miriya – an elite Celestian of the Order of Our Martyred Lady – has been shaped to be the ultimate warrior.
When dangerous psychic heretic Torris Vaun escapes from her custody, Miriya is shamed and disgraced in the eyes of her superiors.
To regain her honour and the respect of her commander, she must track down and recapture Vaun.
Following the terrorist’s trail to the planet Neva, Miriya takes her sisters in pursuit and, along with Hospitalier Sister Verity, starts her investigations.
But Neva holds many dark secrets, and when they uncover a terrifying plot that could threaten the future of the Imperium, will Miriya’s and Verity’s faith be strong enough for them to triumph?
