marble slab wall shower

I'd like to get some advice on installing full white carrera marble slab walls. This would be for one room that is a full shower and also above a cast iron tub that will be used as a tub/shower combo.

We are thinking of using black felt paper over the studs for a vapor barrier, then 1/2" hardi-backer, then using some type of epoxy to adhere the white marble (not sure what best epoxy for this is). Not sure yet whether marble will go all the way to ceiling but I doubt it since that would make the marble very heavy and also usually the wall to ceiling is never perfectly straight so that requires yet another slant cut at the ceiling height. So marble will probably stop about a foot from the ceiling - advice on this would be great too.

Any advice on how to proceed would be great.
