    About this ebook

    This early work by Emile Erckmann and Alexandre Chatrian was originally published in 1876 and we are now republishing it with brand new introductory biographies as part of our Cryptofiction Classics series. 'The Queen of the Bees' is a short story about a swarm of bees. The Cryptofiction Classics series contains a collection of wonderful stories from some of the greatest authors in the genre, including Ambrose Bierce, Arthur Conan Doyle, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Jack London. From its roots in cryptozoology, this genre features bizarre, fantastical, and often terrifying tales of mythical and legendary creatures. Whether it be giant spiders, werewolves, lake monsters, or dinosaurs, the Cryptofiction Classics series offers a fantastic introduction to the world of weird creatures in fiction.
