Amalgam, the Valaran Chronicles Book 1 (Volume 1) Byron A. Wells 2nd edition

The first volume in the Valaran Chronicles is your launch into an epic adventure. Hobs is unusual, as different from his family and friends as night from day. He was born with an inquisitive nature, and the myriad stars that fill the night sky of his planet are the sirens that sing to him, taunting him with their haunting melodies that spark question after question. The most haunting question he has, "is there life among the stars?" He's about to find out. After a tragic accident, Hobs' quiet life is changed forever when he is befriended by Archon, a relic of the long-lost Valaran Empire. Their planet faces a serious threat from the Scarian -- a vicious reptilian species determined to settle an old score. In order to protect himself, his town and planet from this ancient enemy Hobs must challenge everything he holds to be true; and together with Archon, they must find a way to defeat the Scarian incursion and restore peace on this remote side of the galaxy.
