3m, 3f / Dramatic Comedy / Unit Set Up invites us into the life of Walter Griffin, a failed inventor obsessed with Philippe Petit's famed 1974 wire-walk between the twin World Trade Center towers.

This high altitude comedy of errors based on the true story of Larry Walters, a man dedicated to getting the best view, was developed through improvisation at the78th Street Theatre Lab. Larry, with the help of fifty surplus weather balloons, launched himself to 1,600 feet in an aluminum lawn chair and lived to tell about it. After being spotted by passing aircraft, he descended by shooting several of the balloons with a pellet gun, got entangled in power lines and was arrested by the FAA for violating commercial airspace in an unauthorized vehicle. Mr. Walters dropped out of sight after a brief time in the spotlight including an appearance on the David Letterman show, but not before securing his place as a cult hero for weird daredevils everywhere. A radio version aired on the BBC. Winner of the Edinburgh Festival's Best of the Fringe.

Then, they translated it into English and now hope to translate and publish it in other languages as well. I believe that their purpose is to transmit the knowledge and awareness they have about the topic of space science and technology to young children all across Bharath, inspiring them to dream big. They selected human spaceflight as the topic because, in their opinion, it is the most adventurous “sport” and not accessible to everyone, although all of us have reasons to dream of being one who will fly to space one day.

'Rating: 5 out of 5 stars. This was an excellent book that I thoroughly enjoyed. Straight away I was intrigued by the world, magic system, characters and story. It is beautifully written with the perfect amount of description to fuel your mind but not lose track of the story. Highly recommended and I will be looking out for more from Michael Richards.' Beware.the.Jabberwock (Reviewer) NetGalley Freysdal is a peculiar place for more reasons than one. Besides manufacturing radiant items for non-Light-Twisters, it's also the only place in Thadren where thralls and freemen work side by side. Jaren knows that he's no more than a small piece in the effort to overthrow Thralldom, but he's comfortable with that role. That comfort is shattered, though, when he learns that he can control radiant energy. Now, instead working to be reunited with his sisters, Jaren must resist the burden that drives Light-Twisters to cruelty and survive an abusive radiance instructor long enough to figure out who's trying to kill Freysdal's founder. The stress ramps up with growing rumors of an impending attack on Freysdal, and Jaren must decide whether he's willing to give up the Peace of Freysdal and become the Sword that defends it.
