Daedalus is a science fiction short story that blends the boundaries of fact and fiction as seamlessly as the late master, Michael Crichton. It's the type of story that leaves you asking questions and discussing with your coworkers in the break room.

“Williscroft's usual attention to technical detail and firsthand experience with military ops pays off in this wild tale set in the world of his Slingshot, about the first wingsuit jump from a launch loop.”—Alastair Mayer, Author of The T-Space Series

Using a new Gryphon-7 hard-shell wingsuit, Tiger Baily, irreverent member of the Navy SEALS Winged Insertion Command, makes a harrowing first experimental base jump from the edge of Space, the Fred Noonan Skyport 80,000 meters above Jarvis Island in the Equatorial Pacific. Tiger’s target, which he must reach to survive, is Kiritimati Island, a tiny, isolated atoll 379 km northeast of Jarvis over ever-threatening and oh-so-deep ocean waters.
