Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sipa - The man who followed the bees is an amazing, enchanting and deep tale of a man's life journey. Starting when Sipa turns 14 and follows him all the way to his 50th year. This short story takes you on the adventurous path of Sipa who seeks both earthly progress and spiritual development and who at crucial moments in his life is guided by the bees. Ann Macmillan says about it: "The genre of this book is reminiscent of those of the ‘Tales by Trees’ series. Christian’s story is tiny, but powerful in the telling; it could be read within the space of a train journey yet the images created through Sipa's journey will last much longer! The bees with whom Sipa connects as a young man, lead him through extraordinary life-experiences before finally seemingly to desert him. At that crucial moment Sipa understands what the Bees are telling him: that he is responsible now for creating his own next challenge which turns out to be the most herculean task of his life. Destiny allows him enough time to see the first seeds of his efforts germinate, and that's when he hears once again, the returning sound of his friends. . . This is an exceptional allegorical tale that I couldn't put down till it was finished--it will remain in my memory for a long time to come!" Here a short extract from Christian Gruetzmacher’s (honey-bee-lover-researcher and founder of the Bee-Observatory: bee-observatory.org) debut: "…. All along that lane there were thousands of flowers on the ground, the shrubs and bushes, and now within that abundance there were bees, bees everywhere, many more than usual. All sorts of bees! Big ones, small ones, furry ones, shiny ones - and they all seemed to be busier and louder than they usually were. Sipa liked that. He thought: “Maybe it’s a good sign!” So, he speeded up, walking very briskly along this forest lane, noticing all the time that the bees were always there, no matter how fast he walked - they were around him all the time! He took that as a clear sign and decided that he would follow the bees no matter where they would lead him, and he did - all day long!"
