After a chance meeting in the pub, Roger Morgan-Grenville and his friend Duncan decide to take up beekeeping. Their enthusiasm matched only by their ignorance, they are pitched into an arcane world of unexpected challenges.

Coping with many setbacks along the way, they manage to create a colony of beehives, finishing two years later with more honey than anyone knows what to do with. By standing back from their normal lives and working with the cycle of the seasons, they emerge with a new-found understanding of nature and a respect for the honeybee and the threats it faces.

Wryly humorous and surprisingly moving, Liquid Gold is the story of a friendship between two unlikely men at very different stages of their lives. It is also an uplifting account of the author's own midlife journey: coming to terms with an empty nest, getting older, looking for something new.

"Simon Mattacks's easy-listening narration would tempt anyone to relax for a second drink at the pub while being regaled with Roger Morgan-Grenville's many mishaps on the way to sweet perfection." —AudioFile Magazine

Fantastic writing, making easy work of imparting a huge amount of facts, intertwined with a really entertaining story. We listened in the car with kids and the whole family thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommend!

A very thorough and detailed look and bees told through the experience of a beginner. It is humourous, informative and well read. Thoroughly recommend.

A fascinating look at bees

Great narrative and insight into beekeeping by happenstance, and completely relatable. My son in law and I are both thinking of starting and I can see us failing in to similar traps.

Fabulous

A grest way to learn with humour. Self-effacing funny but with a serious message. I have since enrolled on a beekeeping course and in the process of building rather than buying a hive ( I am Yorkshire!!) j x
