Synopsis

It's the cusp of the 20th century! It's the time of dependable bicycles, not-so-dependable automobiles, and theories of canals on Mars. It's the time to finally conquer the sky with powered flight. And it's the time for Greek Muses to intervene before yet another Mortal kills himself in the effort!

Take off on this flight of fancy - a delightful mix of solid history and utter fantasy. Discover how the Goddess of Geometry, Agriculture, and Sacred Hymns becomes the Muse to nurture Mortals' quest for flight. Discover why she chooses a bicycle builder from Ohio as her champion over the distinguished Secretary of the Smithsonian. And discover how the marriage of Mortals and Muses inevitably leads to grand achievements, tragic misunderstandings, and terrible puns.
