Extractions: 'Halloran, Jack. Jack O'Halloran is the narrator of Tom Greer's A Modern Daedalus (1887). Greer (1846-1904) was an Irish writer and surgeon who lived in England from about 1880. The novel is set in 1887 and is...well, marred, from beginning to end; O'Halloran writes that he doesn't want to be accused of "unpardonable egotism and wearisome prolixity," but that is an adequate description of both the narrator and the book, which is a tedious attempt at singing the ills of British treatment of Irish. Which is not a simple matter by any means, and the British were and are not innocent of wrong-doing in Irelandfar from itbut Greer loads the deck with his portrayal of egotistical, evil Brits and good, brave, noble Irish. O'Halloran is obsessed with flight, even as a child; after graduating from college he returns to Ireland to build a flying device. After much experimentation he discovers a means of unaided unpowered flight. The specifics are never detailed, although he talks about wearing a pair of six-foot-long wings and flying with them. Nor are his means of propulsion detailed; the reader is left with the implication that O'Halloran flaps like a bird to propel himself. There are some obvious logical difficulties with this, especially since he routinely hits speeds of 100 mph. Jack is rescued by his brother, who he teaches to fly. They escape together to Ireland and Jack, now forgiven by his brother and hailed by the common people as a hero, trains a brigade of fliers. They drop bombs on a British brigade and sink a few British ironclads, and while Jack hypocritically mews about how what he is doing makes him sick he continues onward and helps kill hundreds more soldiers. They destroy the English forces in Ireland, England submits to Irish independence, and the Irish continue to build a flying force, which at novel's end is a thousand strong.
