Freddy Anderson Chronicles - John Ricks (Science Fiction)

"Ten-year-old Dr. Freddy Anderson is a super genius capable of using his mind in incredible ways. After he is orphaned, the president grants him land near a military base and issues an order for an admiral to keep an eye on him. Even as he is relentlessly tailed by a Navy Seal, Freddy attempts to start over with a new family. Sadly, his journey is not easy as he is bullied, shunned, and loved by few. But what his adversaries do not know is that Freddy is a determined boy with amazing healing abilities.

The government thinks Freddy is a threat to national security, not only because of his gifts, but because he invents innovative devices that make him attractive to their foreign enemies. When the government becomes too involved in his affairs and steals his inventions, Freddy takes extreme measures to protect himself and his future by unveiling his latest creation. But as Freddy proceeds with his plan, he is about to discover that another race wants him—and his knowledge—even more than the humans.

In this science fiction tale, a child genius becomes the pawn for beings who want nothing more than to look inside his brain and determine how he can help them annihilate humanity."


Dr. Freddy Anderson is on an important mission to save the world from destruction. Guarded by Navy SEALs, the ten-year-old super genius inventor is doing his best to balance his work designing a shuttle and developing a way to travel faster than the speed of light with a personal life that includes his first girlfriend ever. Unfortunately completing his mission is becoming exceedingly more difficult as aliens search his mind to learn how he demolished their greatest ship.

Freddy is destined to become the strongest healer and telepath in the known universe. But just as the world learns of an impending earth-destroying disaster and panics, Freddy discovers the disaster is worse than what he originally believed it would be. As he starts the world on a new course that will either spiral out of control or rescue the human race from itself, now only time will tell if Freddy will succeed or if life as he knows it will change forever.

Earth Ship Protectress shares the continuing tale of a young genius’s journey as he realizes the power of love, attempts to stop an evil plan, and inadvertently sets the stage for the battle of his life.
