Icarus was not a Greek god. He was the son of Daedalus, in the myth, Daedalus and Icarus were forced to flee from the king of Crete, Daedalus crafted wings, made with wax, he warned Icarus not to fly to low or to high. But he did indeed fly to high, the wax melted and he fell into the sea. All in all a sad myth. There was also another story about Daedalus, Talus also referred to as Perdix, his nephew and his apprentice was a threat, he was talented, and in a desperate attempt Daedalus caused him to fall towards the sea, but the goddess Athena saved Talus by turning him into a bird who was able to fly away.
There are two books named Fly Away Home: 1. A novel by Jennifer Weiner 2. A children's book by Eve Bunting
Daedalus warns Icarus not to fly too low, as the sea's dampness will clog the wings, or too high, as the sun's heat will melt the wax holding the feathers together. He advises Icarus to follow his lead and fly at a moderate height.
