Yes, General Vard the murderous alien wasp was a "Killer Bee" in every sense of the word.

These bees, in real life, are Africanized versions of the common honeybee, and have spread to the Amazon forests and somehow to North America, edging out their meeker cousins the honeybee.

In my novel, SPACEHIVE, the Earth is threatened by a terrific invasion of giant alien bees and wasps under the direction of General Vard, the Black Watch, and a multitude of friendlier worker alien bees, as well as a "new" and warlike Queen.

The following video explains the "killer bees" increasingly found at home here in North America. In Dallas, Texas, a killer bee hive killed a full grown horse in 20 minutes.

SCARY?! There's also a love story and humor, threading their way through this well researched but fictional fantasy book. Read my imaginative middle grade book, SPACEHIVE, available worldwide on Amazon and Smashwords, and selected bookstores and libraries.
