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 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.

A once-famous scientist fallen on hard times, Stan is fighting off the repo-men and trying hard to patent the cybernetic ant that will reinstate his reputation. Julie Lish is beautiful, mysterious, and totally amoral. She has a plan so outrageous that there might be one chance in a million to pull it off.Together they make an attempt to grab the ultimate treasure-royal jelly from an Alien hive.
Margie Harris was the first woman hardboiled crime fiction writer in history. She wrote some of the toughest, roughest, most remorseless stories to be found in '30s gangster pulps like GANGLAND STORIES and MOBS. Her avid readers questioned whether she could even be a woman. I'm "just another twist," she told them-a woman of mystery then-a woman of mystery now. She palled around with the death-row doomed and the Chicago underworld. She may have been a newswoman; may have worked in the law. One point was not in doubt. She slammed her typewriter like a machine gun, mowing down good guys and bad guys alike; shooting them, knifing them, blowing them up-lacing her prose with metaphysical commentary on the destinations of their damned souls. In an age when gangsters were royalty, Margie Harris was their queen. This first anthology of her work collects eight explosive stories, and a bio of Margie Harris. David Bischoff is a New York Times bestselling author, editor and script writer whose credits include the classic fantasy series, THE GAMING MAGI, and work on STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION. He teaches in an MFA program at Seton Hill University.
