The Our Lady of Endless Worlds series begins with Sisters of the Vast Black (2019), which introduces an order of Catholic nuns who live and travel aboard a living biological spaceship. The nuns perform charity work across the galaxy, but their mission is complicated when they discover a conspiracy that tests their faith and loyalty.
Sisters of the Forsaken Stars (2022) continues the story as the nuns face new challenges from both political powers and internal disagreements. Rather writes about faith without cynicism, treating the nuns’ beliefs as genuine and meaningful while placing them in a science fiction setting that raises hard questions about compromise and conviction.
