Have you ever wondered what life would be like without TV, airplanes or telephones? The Balloon Race is set in a fictional world where it hasn't seen World War I or World War II and as the phrase 'Necessity is the mother of invention' suggests, these wars brought on great leaps in technology, most of our modern comforts are yet to appear in this world. This story follows a small group of friends on their journey to seek a better life away from the dismal and smokey town that they live in. Ballooning is the mode of long distance travel here in a country where the state controlled coal factories belch out dark fog over it’s occupants, there are alternatives but the illegitimate King of Anvil wouldn’t benefit from them and isn’t keen on his subjects discovering these alternatives and will stop at nothing to make sure it stays that way.
