In a masterpiece of historical fantasy that triumphantly melds fact and fiction, Jack Dann offers his own thrilling secret history of a lost year in Leonardo da Vinci's life.

What if, during that missing year, he actually built and flew his marvellous machine - five hundred years before the Wright Brother\'9291s legendary flight at Kitty Hawk? The Memory Cathedral magically recreates the world of Renaissance Italy, following Leonardo as he sets out on a mythic journey to a destiny - and an adventure - that might have been. Filled with extraordinary, authentic detail, and rich with historic figures that live and breathe with spellbinding immediacy, The Memory Cathedral is a marvel of craftmanship and style that captures the essence of fifteenthcentury Italy and the opulent Middle East.
