In Nemesis Horizon Project, Eric Stephen Booth wrote a multidimensional story with humans, human-alien hybrids, and interplanetary wars at the centre. Stefan is a half-human, half-reptilian hybrid who makes babies in a test tube with his partner, David. This process is carried out with the help of Dr. Francis Fernández, who keeps one of the children away from their knowledge and gives them triplets. The Reptilians are a population created by the government to be weapons of warfare. The government and the Illuminati turn against the human and Reptilian populations and try to annihilate them. The triplets and the rest of the world are caught in this ugly race for survival. People are killed, and the hybrid population is hunted by the government, the Illuminati, and other entities that want them dead. For the triplets, the plan is to escape with their respective partners to Mars at the instruction of Granddad, Stefan's grandfather.

The secret baby concealed by Francis Fernández grows up to be Braxton, a hybrid whose blood contains a virus capable of killing humans. His parents and his brothers do not know of his existence. It is only Granddad that knows about him. He is in a colony all by himself with his girlfriend, Evelyn. Granddad orders him to kill all medical, scientific, and technical personnel with high IQs in order to render the world helpless. Read this book to experience the fear for survival felt by the characters.

I love the innovative and imaginative aspect of this book. The author expertly created characters I have never encountered, such as the Reptilians and the Hybrids. Also, the existence of Mars as a neighbour planet was expertly narrated. The invention of humanoids and the existence of life and technology on the Antarctica continent are worthy of applause. The growth of the triplets to have normal lives with living partners was impressive. The love lives of these characters made the story more interesting. Their love lives made them more vulnerable and, as a consequence, very relatable. Everyone had something to fight for, something to lose. The book teaches people to follow their guts and hold their loved ones close. It also teaches that evil never sleeps, and we should never relax because evil is always active. I cannot end this part of the review without applauding the author's expertise in science and technology, which made the book really informative.

I did not enjoy the immense sexualisation of the narration in this book. There was a proliferation of explicit sexual narration, and it felt like it was mostly fillers for the pages to increase because most of the time, the incessant sex had nothing to do with the storyline; it was merely sex in the pages of a book meant to interest and attract young, impressionable readers. I was also put off by the seeming normalisation of pedophilia and rape. I believe this book should have a disclaimer or a trigger warning for victims of both child and adult sexual abuse because that aspect is not palatable.

The book was professionally edited, although with occasional grammatical errors. Owing to the negative points outlined above, coupled with the errors I found in the book, I will deduct two stars from it. I rate the book two out of four stars. I did not rate it lower because it was still interesting and rich in narration.

This book would be superbly appreciated by lovers of science fiction, aficionados of aliens and UFOs, erotica lovers with fetishes for aliens, and lovers of otherworldly bodies and violent lovemaking. I recommend it to them because they will thoroughly enjoy it.

This seems like a very strange novel. The summary that was given made this sound very interesting to me. The more of the review I read the more disappointed I became. I am not a fan of erotic sex even when it adds something to the plot and even less when it doesn’t.

I am quite confused by the book title and cover but I believe that it's amazing. I loved that you are genuine about your thoughts about your book.
