This spring, The Beekeeper’s Apprentice, Laurie R. King’s first Mary Russell/Sherlock Holmes novel, turns fifteen; Sir Arthur Conan Doyle would turn 150; and the ninth Russell novel, The Language of Bees, turns up in stores.
In the midst of all this buzz, the Laurie King e-universe (web site/Goodreads/Myspace/Facebook/LRK Virtual Book Club/blog) will celebrate Fifteen Weeks of Bees, with library and reading group events, contests and drawings, art projects both on and off line, and a bee-hive fundraiser through Heifer International.
