Friend or Foe - Thryft

Intergalactic adventure through the Outernet.

"Friend or Foe" could be a good read for science fiction fans who enjoy action-packed adventures with unlikely heroes. The book's unique feature is the concept of the Outernet - an intergalactic computer network beyond our own and the battle between the Friends and FOES to control it. The story is made even more entertaining with the addition of a comedic duo, a dog, and a cat. Readers will enjoy this wild ride through strange galaxies and unexpected adventures.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

A wild ride through strange galaxies and unexpected adventures. But watch your step -- and don't step in anything gross or smelly along the way!

The Outernet is a web of intergalactic computer networks linked through Servers on different planets.
As the series opens, we discover that the evil Tyrant and his henchmen (the FOES) are trying to take over the Outernet and use its powers to control the galaxy.
Our heroes, including several not-so-lucky Earth kids, accidentally connect to the Outernet via a lost Server. They must work with the Friends of the Outernet to keep freedom and liberty in the Galaxy. They are assisted (and often hindered) by a hilarious dog and cat team who are disguised agents of the Friends and the FOES.
