Pilgrims of Fire

Adepta Sororitas: Warhammer 40,000

By: Justin D Hill

Narrated by: Gabrielle Nellis-Pain

An Adepta Sororitas Novel

Sister Helewise is determined to stay alive until her death might serve a higher purpose – as the God-Emperor wills it. When she joins the cursed Fleet Quintus, her faith will be tested in ways she could never have imagined.

LISTEN TO IT BECAUSE

Follow one of the most pious orders of the Adepta Sororitas as they join the Indomitus Crusade aboard Fleet Quintus – ominously referred to as the ‘Cursed Fleet.’

THE STORY

Of all the devout warriors in the Adepta Sororitas, none are as renowned or battle-hungry as those of the Order of Our Martyred Lady. Yet while others seek glory in their own martyrdom, Sister Helewise is determined to stay alive, so that her death might serve a greater purpose when the God-Emperor wills it.

Assigned to Fleet Quintus of the Indomitus Crusade, Helewise and her sisters follow an ancient route of pilgrimage to rediscover and liberate the shrine world of Cion, once a sacred bastion of their order. In retracing the steps of Saint Katherine herself, their faith will be tested to the extreme as they attempt to uncover what became of their sisters stationed in the daemon-infested sectors beyond the Cicatrix Maledictum.

As their mission lurches from disaster to disaster and the Emperor’s voice grows ever quieter, the Sisters of Battle must trust in bolter, blade, and their own unbreakable bonds to drive back the darkness of Imperium Nihilus.

Was good but structure was not for me.

This is the second novel I've either listened to or read, it's really good. Just in my personal opinion, the few times the timeline changes from present to past was a tad jarring, at least for me. Maybe that's better to read than to listen.

Justin Hills faith and fury

Justin D Hill is one of my favorite Black Library authors. This novel doesn't disappoint, action and an amazing story. The characters are well written and life like. This is a must listen/read for any fan of 40k, sisters of battle or great military action.

Great sisters book.

Good look at the personality and views of the SoB. Though some of the plot gets a bit silly.

I didn't expect sister and savlar

How things are handled:
Sisters: Positive
Savlar: Positive
Story: Positive
Chaos: Negative
Setting: Negative

I didn't know I needed sisters and savlar but most else drags it down.

Good Lore

I really enjoyed this book. Having read or listened to many Adepta Sororitas books I can say that the feel for the chapter and the 40K universe is alive and well in this rendition. Good characters and details.
