Victoria Saccenti

Action, adventure, and high fantasy combine with ancient mythologies to create this epic paranormal romance.

Titanian Warrior is the third book of the Titanian Chronicles by author Victoria Saccenti, and it is wonderful! With its exciting mix of mythologies and supernatural beings, the author has created a unique setting for an action-packed, emotionally satisfying fantasy and paranormal love story.

This is Hagen’s story, and the book takes him from the deepest thrall of bloodlust, which descends on the Titanian who has gone too long without finding their eternal mate, to his redemption when he finally discovers his intended. Faiza, sold into servitude with her sister, Lilith, to a necromancer, is the book’s heroine. She is young and headstrong but cleverly maintains a humble façade around the evil mage to protect what she understands to be her little bit of magic. There is a twist. I found her empathic abilities fascinating and really liked when their use was mentioned in the story.

As with Hagen’s visit to Hell when he’s in the throes of bloodlust, the descriptions of the situation for the sisters with the necromancer, well, anything to do with Oras, were horrifying; I got the creeps. Lilith’s transformation absolutely shocked me, and that was early on in the story. The author literally hits us in all our senses here. Master O is one heinous guy whom we can all despise.

However, from the minute Faiza and Hagen meet, I was completely captured by the chemistry between the two. He’s practically unconscious; he’s in such bad shape, and I was right there in the moment with Faiza, drawn to the poor damaged guy. Of course, their connection is more than just normal boy-meet-girl, and the feelings develop quickly. But they were so immediately good together! I was also pleased to see the established couples in the story and the glimpses into their pasts, beginnings, and backstories.

With a satisfying love story that rescues and redeems and a compelling plot of good versus evil, I recommend THE TITANIAN WARRIOR to readers of fantasy and paranormal romance and fans of the previous novels is this excellent series.… (more)

Wow! This story is exciting, intriguing and steamy! Arely is a courageous and strong woman. She just speaks her mind as she thinks about it. Kurt finds himself falling for her. Can this romance survive the challenges she faces? The characters are all butt-kickers. They are strong and not afraid to fight to protect one another. The plot is strong and feels realistic. It felt like there was a twist in there. I loved being so engaged in the story that I couldn’t put it down. I gave the family stink eye if they bothered me. You can feel the emotion in the story. The anger, the happiness, the sadness, the lust, it’s all there…totally recommend this story.… (more)
