Summer of Reading 2019 – Day 2 On an abandoned Imperial cruiser, a mercy mission turns to a desperate struggle for survival as alien enemies close in on a squad of Battle Sisters. READ IT BECAUSE Discover an early adventure for Augusta, hero of The Bloodied Rose, in which she learns of one of the manifold horrors the galaxy holds, and is tested to her very limits. THE STORY The Imperial cruiser Santa Xenia hangs silent in the void, abandoned and lifeless. Or so it seems… Sister Augusta and her squad, Battle Sisters from the Order of the Bloody Rose, investigate the stricken hulk, but it seems that their search for survivors fruitless – until an ambush is sprung.
