QUANTUM CORN CHIP: Some heroes are born. Some are mistaken for aliens.
Fred Angus has three
He's living in his mom's basement. A time traveler just appeared in his bathroom mirror. And that time traveler thinks Fred is an alien.
By the time they realize the mistake, Fred is already locked into three impossible missions to save Earth from environmental collapse. Armed with a glowing crystal, cryptic instructions, and a half-eaten bag of corn chips, Fred must activate ancient energy nodes, help scientists make breakthrough discoveries, and protect indigenous knowledge—all while pretending he has any idea what he's doing.
Fred has spent his whole life feeling like he doesn't fit—too tall, too awkward, too different. But maybe those differences aren't flaws. Maybe he was made exactly as he needed to be, for exactly this moment.
Some heroes are born. Some are chosen.
Fred was mistaken for a grey alien.
But maybe being wonderfully, impossibly different is exactly what makes him perfect.
A hilarious, heartfelt sci-fi adventure about mistaken identity, accidental heroism, and discovering that your quirks might just save the world.
Perfect for fans of Douglas Adams, Ready Player One, and anyone who's ever felt like they don't quite fit in.
