As Jack, Merle, and Load have discovered, there IS life on other planets - and lots of it. In fact, they're planet-hopping as they try to keep the Server safe from the FOEs. And they keep meeting all sorts of Alien Life Forces, including creepy spider things on Planet Arachnus. The kids' mission? To find the "genius" who created the Outernet. But with the bad guys hot on their cosmic trail, the mission gets sidetracked. And now they're journeying to different galaxies. Galaxies far, far a- well... you get the drift.
