Most anthropomorphisms end up being too human or too alien for me. This one hit an excellent balance of bee-like behaviors but still enough ‘human' characteristics like curtsy and religion to make it accessible and understandable. This is a book following a bee through the natural life cycle of a hive and bee's life. Includes overcoming birth castes, foraging adventures, and politics of an aging divine ruler.
