The [[Books of the Raksura]] are a fantasy series by Martha Wells (website [http://www.marthawells.com/default.htm here]). In the Three Worlds, there are perhaps hundreds of wildly diverse humanoid species -- but Moon has spent most of his life thinking he's the [[Last of His Kind|only one of his kind]]. And unfortunately Moon, who is a shapeshifter, just happens to resemble (in one of his two forms) the most rapacious and vicious predators on the planet: the Fell. Moon [[I Just Want to Have Friends|just wants a place to belong]], but he must constantly guard against others learning of his secret. When he finally meets a member of his own kind, a whole new set of adventures begin for him, and he faces his biggest challenge of all: fitting in.

* [[Bee People]]: The Raksuran social structure includes two breeds (winged Aeriat and wingless Arbora), and several castes within each breed, all ruled by a powerful queen. Moon is a consort, the only male who can breed with a queen to produce children, which makes for some interesting gender dynamics given that the queens are bigger, stronger, and decidedly aggressive.
