The History of Bees by Maja Lunde
2.0

Despite the significance of the subject, this book seriously lacked in depth.The connections between the characters was obvious and superficial, without enough character development to make me care that any of their names were remembered generations later. The story set in the future had a lot of promise but the world-building was ineffective and the resolution is inexplicable.
A guy builds a hive that someone else already built, a guy loses his bee colonies, and a boy gets stung by a bee when they return.
The end.
