It's been over 30 years since I read a science fiction book. So, for a 2019 vacation, I thought to myself, what the heck, maybe I should take it easy and read something light for a change... bought some pulp crap to read at the cottage: "The Atlantis Plague" Trilogy about Spanish flu-like pandemic sweeping over the world and "The Demon Crown" about killer hornets wiping out the world... What can I say, I am a little freaked out right now...

So, umm, are they just big friendly hornets that don't bother anyone unless you bother them first? Or are they literally homicidal hornets? I guess them being so big means they're easy to hit.

Virus Bats would be a great name for a minor league ball team.

Well they apparently kill 50 people a year in Japan and I don’t think it’s with hugs.
