The Bees: A Novel

"A riveting dystopia set inside a beehive, The Bees tells the story of worker bee Flora 717, from her lowly hatching to her hive-saving heroism to her inadvertent leadership of a revolution against the hive’s Sage priestesses. With lovely prose, fast-rising stakes and a wonderfully effective rendering of a hive’s life cycle, The Bees is a beautiful book."
