About the Book

Derek "Tiger" Baily and his SEALS Winged Insertion Command (SWIC) drop from Low Earth Orbit to test the enhanced Gryphon-10 MK 4 hardshell wingsuit for combat applications. Every contingency has been planned. The 6-man squad believes it is fully prepared for hurtling around the world and staging critical re-entry, but challenged to innovate life-or-death solutions with only seconds to spare, Baily's team might not survive intact. Fly with Tiger and his SWIC team on a mission that surely will test the limits of their training in Robert G. Williscroft's third installment following Daedalus and Daedalus LEO.

Review :
"The Daedalus adventures . . . follow Slingshot, delivering exciting and thought-provoking sci-fi entertainment through the voice of Tiger." -- Dr. Dave Edlund USA Today Bestselling Author The Peter Savage Thrillers "Robert G. Williscroft's Daedalus Squad brilliantly advances the missions that readers encountered in the fi rst two stories of the SWIC Daedalus Files. This time, a six-man squad in improved wingsuits launches into Low Earth Orbit and travels around the globe before landing. Its purpose is to do it eventually under combat conditions. As you might expect, something is bound to go wrong with this training mission, and it does, leading to a tense conclusion. The near-future scientifi c and technological detail here is thoroughly convincing. The space hardware involved, especially the improved Gryphon-10 Mk 4 wingsuit might actually come off the assembly line in a few years, awaiting its fi rst occupant. As in the author's previous stories, maps show the global paths of the men and make it easy to follow their progress in space. At times, you even feel you're along for the ride." -- Professor John B. Rosenman, Norfolk State University Former Chairman of the Board, Horror Writers Association Author of The Inspector of the Cross Series "More space-going SEAL action from Robert Williscroft. "Tiger" Baily, the wingsuited, space-jumping hero of Williscroft's SWIC Daedalus Files, has the stakes upped once again as his whole team makes a jump from orbit in Daedalus Squad. This time they're leaving nothing to chance and have already simulated every possible bad-news scenario they can think of. Too bad nature can come up with something they didn't think of. Another fun ride, if your idea of fun includes death-defying action." -- Alastair Mayer Author of The T-Space Series "Daedalus Squad is the latest in a series of tales by Robert G. Williscroft, centered around an experimental Navy SEAL team, the SEALS Winged Insertion Command (SWIC), exploiting a futuristic space launch system to reach Low Earth Orbit--without a rocket. That technology was well explained in Williscroft's previous novel, Slingshot. The SWIC Daedalus Files concern the development of special combat operations with easy access to space. As with most experimental research, in Williscroft's stories, there are challenges--and mishaps galore. In this storyline, with humans hurtling around the Earth at orbital velocities, there is precious little room for error. Controlled re-entry of a human body is even riskier. All of that riskiness translates into an exciting read. Aside from the thrills inherent in such feats of heroism, this story is educational. If you've wondered how orbiting spacecraft maneuver to change orbits, or rendezvous with other orbiting bodies (in this story, literally human bodies), Daedalus Squad will reveal enough of the lingo to help you search online and find out how it's done. That education alone adds an unexpected dimension to this treasure of a story. You will definitely want to read this one and the next offering in the SWIC Daedalus Files." -- Dr. John R. Clarke Author of The Jason Parker Series
