GENOCIDE by David Bischoff

The alien queen is dead, the hive mind left to flounder... and on a world bereft of its leader, two strains of Alien divide their forces for a world-shattering, acid-drenched war. On Earth, in the wake of alien infestation, athletes are flocking to humanity's Goodwill Games. But some come with a deadly new tool: a drug called Fire, distilled from the very essence of the Aliens' body chemistry. The military wants it. Pharmaceutical kingpin Daniel Grant wants it. But the only place the essential ingredient can be found is on that terrible world, convulsed by Alien holocaust.

ALIEN HARVEST by Robert Sheckley

Together they make an attempt to grab the ultimate treasureβ€”royal jelly from an Alien hive.
