Maev Barba Presents: Issue 6

Stories told deep in the woods of Washington where the observatory lies. Join us for many stories about bees! A young daughter attempts to assassinate her father with the stinger. A young man, long estranged from family, makes his final "Return to Honey Castle."

If you've never been there, White Mountain is a wondrous sightseeing experience, but, truly, beware of the bees. Killer bees have emerged in recent years and have taken up residence in the locals' gardens. Entire neighborhoods must be quarantined and fumigated.

Anders, our dear narrator in "Return to Honey Castle," must heed the call of his old butler, the only surviving 'member' of his family, in order to return and take up the helm of the family business: an empire of honey bees. Only, there is a new strain of bee, which calls itself "The Nightmare Bee."

A sneak preview of Penguin Party, the novel by Lily Walsh and Josh, is featured at the end. The story begins as the world floods and a father and daughter find themselves floating atop the ocean, more or less safe, in their haunted Victorian house.
