Urdesh: The Serpent and the Saint  written by Matthew Farrer

THE STORY
The mighty world of Urdesh is burning. The smoke of war mingles with the ash of her countless volcanoes. The wreckage of battle litters her forge-cities and chokes her once-fertile seas. Until the warriors of the Imperium can free Urdesh from the grip of the Anarch, the future of the entire Sabbat Worlds Crusade will hang in the balance.

Across these blasted battlefields strides Brother-Captain Priad and the warriors of Damocles Squad. They must keep safe one of the Imperium’s greatest weapons: the Beati, the reincarnation of Saint Sabbat herself, whose very presence on Urdesh inspires the Imperial armies on to glory. But the enemy has plans for the Saint too, and against the malice of the Anarch and the trickery of the warp, the Iron Snakes may truly need a miracle to prevail…
