The Legend of Paper Monkey by Scott Richards

What's your destiny? Johnny Rocket knows the answer to that question. A wannabe rock star with a head full of dreams but empty of talent, Johnny believes that his band 'Paper Monkey' are destined for greatness despite certain things standing in their way, such as a total lack of musical ability.
When Johnny has a chance meeting with a student all the way from Peru, he thinks the stars are aligning and fate is finally pushing him towards greatness. However, Johnny isn't the only one chasing the stars and he and his overly tight trousers soon get caught up in an adventure thousands of years in the making
Card, Orson Scott: -

Orson Scott Card is best known for his science fiction novel Ender's Game and its many sequels that expand the Ender Universe into the far future and the near past. Those books are organized into the Ender Quintet, the five books that chronicle the life of Ender Wiggin; the Shadow Series, that follows on the novel Ender's Shadow and are set on Earth; and the Formic Wars series, written with co-author Aaron Johnston, that tells of the terrible first contact between humans and the alien Buggers.
