Unbalanced – The Rise and Fall of Anglo the Juggler:

A true crime novel inspired by a true story , at the crossroads of juggling, magic, and true crime. The book recounts the rise of Thomas "Anglo" Horton (presented as "Australia's Greatest Juggler"), his chaotic personal life, and the criminal case that cemented his legend.

As an appendix, the historical work The Art of Modern Juggling (attributed to Anglo) is included as a “bonus” after the main narrative.

NetJuggler's review of the Unbalanced:

A unique title in a juggler's library: this isn't a technical manual, but a fictionalized investigation into a real figure from juggling history. It evokes the atmosphere of the early 20th century (England/Australia), the context of the publication of *The Art of Modern Juggling* , and a plot that embraces its mystery. Recommended for juggling history enthusiasts, those curious about magic/music hall culture, and readers drawn to true crime.

The book Unbalanced – The Rise and Fall of Anglo the Juggler, presented from three angles: front cover with illustration of a juggler, open inner pages, and back cover.
