About this listen

A Warhammer 40,000 audiobook

After centuries of strife guided by the Emperor's holy light, Ephrael Stern finds herself forsaken when the Great Rift dawns and the light is extinguished. When a mysterious stranger offers new hope, the Daemonifuge is thrown into battle once more….

Listen to It Because

Catch up with Ephrael Stern, the Heretic Saint and living weapon against Chaos, in a new novel that picks up the story of this classic character from Black Library's history and thrusts her into the Dark Imperium.

The Story

Throughout the tortured galaxy, Ephrael Stern is known by many names. The Thrice-born. The Daemonifuge. The Heretic Saint. Trapped deep within Imperium Nihilus following the coming of the Great Rift, the maligned Sister of Battle fears the Imperium is no more. The God-Emperor’s light, which has guided her through centuries of strife, has too extinguished. Seemingly forsaken, Stern is bereft until a mysterious stranger arrives, offering her a new destiny. One that might yet see the Imperium saved. Stern must prove herself worthy of the God-Emperor’s grace once more, lest a new threat greater than any mankind has faced before plunge humanity into a nightmare abyss of nothingness.

Written by David Annandale. Narrated by Emma Gregory.

Emma Gregory gives a great performance as she always does, but the story doesn't really high stakes or excitement, and doesn't really give much insight into Ephreal as a character.

Good performance, boring story

The story was well paced, and demonstrated the conundrum of being perceived as a heretic Saint and the issues that arise from it.

A good addition to sterns canjon

Yet another amazing self contained entry into the greatest most story rich universe in imagination! A pure power fantasy expertly narrated and written.

What I wanted from this book was some greater understanding of who Stern was and what made her tick. It delivered well. Emma Gregory's performance is wonderful, and the story is pretty decent. The characters are more memorable than in many 40k novels. The story is extremely simple, which can be good or bad depending on your preference. I had a good time with it, but I think Celestine is a better entry point for Sisters novels

Nice background for Stern
