There are some things that exist solely to lampshade, subvert, invert, and generally deconstruct any tropes they come across. This series does that for Space and Science Fiction Tropes. The series follows fourteen year-old Jack Armstrong, his friends Merle and Lothaf (Loaf) and two Shapeshifting aliens trapped in the form of a dog and cat. After Jack receives The Server, an alien teleportation/database system, the three humans are recruited to prevent The Tyrant's evil plan to steal The Server and thus control the Outernet. (Which is just the outer-space version of the internet). It's Better Than It Sounds, and has some surprising plot twists towards the end. There are seven books in the series.

- The outernet is the region of cyberspace where data travels once it has been erased from a computer's memory. It is coloquially referred to as "data limbo" and is not to be confused with "data hell" or the undernet where evil data such as viruses, spam and messages from your parents go. There is also the uppernet, or "data heaven", which is stricly for lost pornography and pronography. These are in fact subsections of the Outernet. It is somewhat similar to the catholic idea of Purgatory however with fewer free sandwiches.
