Synopsis
The sisters of the Order of Saint Rita captain their living ship into the reaches of space in Lina Rather’s
debut novella, Sisters of the Vast Black.
Years ago, Old Earth sent forth sisters and brothers into the vast dark of the prodigal colonies armed only with
crucifixes and iron faith. Now, the sisters of the Order of Saint Rita are on an interstellar mission of mercy aboard Our
Lady of Impossible Constellations, a living, breathing ship which seems determined to develop a will of its own.
When the order receives a distress call from a newly formed colony, the sisters discover that the bodies and souls in
their care—and that of the galactic diaspora—are in danger. And not from void beyond, but from the nascent Central
Governance and the Church itself.
