Daedalus Rising - The True Story of Icarus

By Robert William Case

A New Mythology for the 21st Century We have known how to fly for centuries... Long ago, Daedalus invented wings, showing us that it could be done. He made two pair of them, one for himself and one for his son. It was a truly wonderful gift. The old legend tells of a father and son flying together, out over the sea on a beautiful warm day long ago, and of a story of loss that Deadalus told when he finished the flight. We seem to have collectively decided to stay on the ground ever since, but why? There was so much more to the story that Daedalus did not tell. Daedalus Rising completes the myth, telling The True Story of Icarus and revealing an ancient mystery whose time has finally come. Daedalus Rising brings to light what really happened in the sky that day, recasting and recreating the meaning of an old myth through the telling of the story of a son's quest and of the father who cared deeply about him. It is a story of initiation and growth, and of the power of wings.
