A novel by

 
 
Chuck, a fifteen-year-old hardened war orphan has seen friends killed and now lies dying on a salvage battlefield himself. But the universe has a different plan for Chuck. A mortally wounded man offers to save his life, and Chuck accepts his help. A moment later Chuck regrets his decision when his rescuer forces Chuck’s mouth open and a reptilian octopus is ejected from his rescuer’s mouth and into his.
Because of Chuck’s symbiote, Tom’s desire for revenge, Chuck finds himself drawn into a shadow war with an alien race. Chuck must hide from the aliens because they would rather burn the planet to a cinder than let Tom escape. He must also hide from the government because they want Tom’s knowledge of advanced tech and will do anything to get it.
Chuck has a few advantages: Tom’s DNA has mixed with his, giving him access to genetic memories; Tom’s race is aquatic, which gives Chuck the ability to breathe underwater; and no one knows Tom is a symbiote, so no one is actually looking for Chuck.
Chuck is content to hide in plain sight as a salvager until someone kills his new family while trying to kill him. Now all bets are off as Chuck is on a search-and-destroy mission looking for those responsible. He uses every piece of war salvage he must to find and kill them. Inherited revenge or not, revenge will be had.
