“My strength is the Emperor and His Holy Writ.” “Aren’t you pious for one who is so green at the sight of the Order?" “The Emperor is divine. The Order are just men. You don’t fault a whole faith just because some of its agents take to brigandage. My faith kept me through the war, and it hasn't ...

A fine finale to the trilogy. I didn't see the villain twist coming, which means I was invested in the story and not overthinking it.
