It’s been a wild ride watching people enjoy MEAT BEES—and the book still has eight months until it’s released!

Thanks for the boost, Capes and Tights!
Meat Bees by Dane Erbach is exactly the campy horror story I was hoping for. It delivers a terrifying story of swarming wasps and a supernatural element that kept me truly terrified from beginning to end.
