I've been waiting for Raiden and Titan's story since book 2 and I was not disappointed! They are so sweet and I loved how perfect they were for each other. This is definitely one of my favorites of the series. 

Raiden is the Nephilim brother who represents the sin Gluttony. He's the mother hen of the brothers, and loves to cook and provide for them. He meets Titan, a Nephilim who lives on Baxter's Greek island, in Castor's book. Titan comes off stoic and harsh at first, but he and Raiden bond over their love of cooking and food. After the events in the Caribbean, they don't see each other until a year later when the brothers go back to the Greek island as war tensions increase. 

Raiden is always giving himself to his brothers, whether it's emotional support or putting their needs above him. He's selfless but also just a genuinely good person. Titan is the absolute perfect match for him. Titan sees how selfless he is and wants to give Raiden all the support he gives everyone else. Titan is a bit closed off, but he's able to open up to Raiden and enjoy more than just his previous lonesome existence. As the avatar of Gluttony, Raiden's life revolves around food and this shared love of cooking and providing for people brings them even closer. I just can't put into words how well they compliment each other on every level. 

This book had some surprises plot wise. As we get closer to the end, the story is really coming together and getting so good! I love all of these characters, even the side characters are endearing. I'm invested in everyone so I'm pretty nervous going into Alastair's book, but so ready to see how it all ends.
