Epub capable ebook reader for win7 with commandline options (CLI)

I'm looking for an epub capable application that supports command input from commandline after the application has been opened for at least next page and previous page.

The reason for this is that I'd like to have an ebook open on my secondary monitor while doing certain activities in fullscreen, like use downtime in certain games to read a bit. The downside of my current solution (calibre ebook viewer) is that I can't issue previous/next page commands without alt tabbing and some games do not support windows fullscreen making turning to the next page inconvenient.

If such an application exists I was planning to assign one of the macro keys to issue an instruction like: c:\pathtoprogram\program.exe /nextpage. An alternative solution could be a program that'll accept setting things as global hotkeys (key combination that'll trigger the command even when its not the active program)

Any such application or other suitable solutions in other ways would be much appreciated.
