The Bees by Laline Paull

[Greengage]

Just finished reading a really good book called "The Bees" by Laline Paull. It is the story of Flora 717 a honey bee it is an unusual and very clever thriller based inside a hive. Another myth to add to my collection, Only the queen may lay fertile eggs.Ill have to brush up on Thelytokous parthenogenesis before I start the argument. Have a look if your interested. I picked it up in the local library some people have wonderful imaginations.
