Enjoyable read from first to last page. It is a different take of the Nemesis saga that really is a fun and exciting read. Different characters than the Saga series. Graham, the main character, is a grumpy, old guy and is looking to retire so he can just get on with the rest of his life. Only two weeks to retire then all hell breaks loose! Teaming up with 3 women they set out to 'save the world'. The story line is tight, characters well fleshed out and you are quickly drawn into another Robinson book that never disappoints. In the midst of monsters, gore, action that is well written the author writes seamlessly the development of each character and the relationship changes between them as the story moves along without losing any of the action or development of each character. Robinson is one of the few authors that show this unique talent in my opinion.

Nemesis is a perfect example of why I love Jeremy Robinson books. It’s a great story (who doesn’t love giant kaiju monsters running amok), it’s got a lot of references to his other books, and it’s chock full of wit, biting sarcasm and just plain laughs! The great part is that, even with the references to prior Nemesis characters, it’s a complete standalone novel. Seriously, if you want great entertainment, hilarious characters and a rocking great read, you have GOT to read this book…and when you finish, you will definitely want to pick up his other books as well! An easy five stars!

Jeremy Robinson's works are incredible, and he once again knocks it out of the park with this standalone, NEMESIS! That's right, you do not have to have read anything (including the prior Nemesis Saga) before diving into this one! However, if you already have, that will only add to the enjoyment of NEMESIS!

As is par for the course with any Robinson book, this is a fast-paced action ride, but it also has well-placed humor and depth. The story is well-written and hard to put down - very hard to put down!

The audiobook will be released on December 19th, and I'm looking forward to reliving this adventure all over again!

I'm hoping Robinson has a series planned in this alternate Nemesis world, because he's set up a great cast of characters and I'm ready for the next Kaiju-sized, city-destroying adventure!

4.0 out of 5 stars New take that works usually
Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2024
This is a grittier, more serious take on the original Nemesis story. There's a lot of enjoyable things in it, namely Graham and his continual hatred of pretty much everyone. His inner monolgue is very similar to what I think every day. Fans of the original Nemesis story will find a ton of call backs. This books feels like it needs a prequel novella or short story to explain this version of Nemesis appearing and the eventual demise of Hudson. Both these events are mentioned frequently but don't get a lot of explanation. There's some very cringe worthy jabs at American history and mental health that didn't need to be added. Following Nemesis destroying Boston, the city is rebuilt and the government begins actively looking for evil doers, yet somehow had no idea a Vegas like city has been created undo Neo Boston. The fact that Nemesis can only sense evil doers when they're above ground is oddly specific and seems like it's only needed to move the plot forward. The back and forth between Graham and Blackwater is really funny. Plenty of action as the second act kicks in. Overall I'd say it's a really good book even though it's just a rewrite of a previous novel. There's also a very obvious jab at the Godzilla movies late in the book that ruined a perfectly good action scene

5.0 out of 5 stars Nemesis packs a punch and destroys Boston...twice!

While I'm fairly new to the Kaiju universe, I enjoyed the heck out of Nemesis! The story is so fast paced and Robinson seems to like creating cliffhanger chapter ending that keep you reading long into the night when you really should be getting some sleep.

The characters are fun, the setting is engaging and there is plenty of humor sprinkled through this taut monster/wacky cult/action adventure. Its a fun read and will make you a fan of big big monsters and even make you appreciate Boston, while it's still around.

I have been a fan of Mr. Robinson for a while now. This reimagining of one of my favorite kaiju is a fun romp through New England with some familiar faces from the original works, but also some really well written new characters. If you like books with big explosions, strong female characters, pop culture references, and dialogue to rival a Kevin Smith movie, then let me introduce you to Jeremy Robinson's Nemesis. If you like what you've read, go explore the Infinite timeline also written by Mr. Robinson.
