Summary

Meet Barry B. Stingerton: ex-therapy patient, Hive menace, and the most foul-mouthed bee in fiction.

Barry’s got issues. Anger issues. Drinking issues. Authority issues. Oh—and his stinger has a name. It's Carl. And Carl wants blood.

After being kicked out of Bee Therapy (again), Barry finds himself slapped with Hive Probation, forced to work with a butterfly “Calmness Coach” named Clover, and hunted by riot-gear-wearing Peace-Beetles. His crime? Buzzing too hard and giving zero pollen about authority.

But when a conspiracy threatens the Queen herself, Barry’s rage might be the only thing that saves the Hive… or utterly destroys it.

Buzz Off is an absurd, hilarious, and surprisingly heartfelt novella about redemption, rebellion, and insect mayhem. If you like talking animals, vulgar satire, and stories that punch you in the thorax, this one’s for you.
