| 3 | The Distraction Alliance is a zany series of an unspecified (probably until the author gets bored of the setting) number of short books written by {{jukyter}}. It is set on a distant future where robots have taken over the world (PlayedForLaughs, of course, in the first book with references to Terminater and Space Odessy: 2001-this is written by a troper). But unlike most of this type of work, there is no hope for salvation for humankind, since they have evolved into a number of species, including Minis (small people) and Yinyanas (banana-shaped savages, though that notion is dispelled by a kind-hearted tribe of Yinyanas in the first book, though there is an evil one). |
| 4 | Currently, the second second book is in progress (the first second book was uninspired) called The Way, a martial arts movie parody. |
| 5 | The first one is hosted [[http://www.ollysworld.co.uk/book-i-snow-day.html here]] and [[http://www.worthyofpublishing.com/book.asp?book_ID=19928 here]], though the second book has an exclusivity deal with the first site and is hosted [[http://www.ollysworld.co.uk/book-ii-the-way here]]. |

| 7 | !!This book series contains examples of: |
| 8 | %%* ActionGirl: Death to [[spoiler: Amelia Earhart]] |
| 9 | * AffectionateParody: Both current books of, respectively, GoneHorriblyWrong and martial arts movies. |
| 10 | %%* GoneHorriblyWrong: This series just is. |
| 11 | %%* {{Metamorphosis}}: Death to [[spoiler: Amelia Earhart]] |
| 12 | * PlayedForLaughs: Basically the whole series but paticularly noticable in the 'Dear Diary' chapter, with references to the ''Franchise/{{Terminator}}''. It also has a very unprofesional prophecy and slightly parodies the 19th Century Enid Blyton and the like novels, with a dash of diary parody. |
| 13 | %%* WhereTheHellIsSpringfield: the 'Free Country' and the 'Wastelands'. |
