Competition Time: Win Firefight and Steelheart
One of my current favorite YA series has to be Reckoners from Brandon Sanderson. I markerd Steelheart as one of my favorites of 2014. It really shines a new light on the term of superhero fiction. Firefight is released today in the UK and because of this reason Gollancz is offering you to win both Firefight and Steelheart physical format.

I will pick a winner at random after the weekend.
Below you can find the excerpts of the books:
Steelheart
Ten years ago, Calamity
came. It was a burst in the sky that gave ordinary men and women
extraordinary powers. The awed public started calling them Epics. But
Epics are no friend of man. With incredible gifts came the desire to
rule. And to rule man you must crush his wills.
Nobody fights the Epics...nobody but the Reckoners. A shadowy group of ordinary humans, they spend their lives studying Epics, finding their weaknesses, and then assassinating them.
And David wants in. He wants Steelheart - the Epic who is said to be invincible. The Epic who killed David's father. For years, like the Reckoners, David's been studying, and planning - and he has something they need. Not an object, but an experience.
He's seen Steelheart bleed. And he wants revenge.
Firefight
From the #1 "New York
Times" bestselling author of Words of Radiance coauthor of Robert
Jordan's Wheel of Time series, and creator of the internationally
bestselling Mistborn Trilogy, Brandon Sanderson presents the second book
in the Reckoners series: Firefight, the sequel to the #1 bestseller
Steelheart.
They told David it was impossible--that even the Reckoners had never killed a High Epic. Yet, Steelheart--invincible, immortal, unconquerable--is dead. And he died by David's hand.
Eliminating Steelheart was supposed to make life more simple. Instead, it only made David realize he has questions. Big ones. And there's no one in Newcago who can give him the answers he needs.
Babylon Restored, the old borough of Manhattan, has possibilities, though. Ruled by the mysterious High Epic, Regalia, David is sure Babylon Restored will lead him to what he needs to find. And while entering another city oppressed by a High Epic despot is a gamble, David's willing to risk it. Because killing Steelheart left a hole in David's heart. A hole where his thirst for vengeance once lived. Somehow, he filled that hole with another Epic--Firefight. And he's willing to go on a quest darker, and more dangerous even, than the fight against Steelheart to find her, and to get his answers.
