Falling Free by Lois McMaster Bujold
Falling Free is an early stand-alone story in Lois McMaster Bujold’s VORKOSIGAN SAGA. It takes place before the events we read about in the other books and tells the story of the Quaddies, those genetically engineered “mutants” who have four arms and no legs and who, therefore, make good workers for zero-gravity situations.

The story starts when Leo Graf, an engineer, is hired to train students on a distant planet.
