As a special preview for our upcoming Alex Rider Dream Gadget Contest, we're giving away two copies of Scorpia and Ark Angel by Anthony Horowitz, the fourth and fifth books in the Alex Rider series. Just leave a comment in this post and tell us why you or your kid(s) needs one of these books. Please make sure you include your email address in the comment form field (it won't be published). All eligible comments will be closed by Noon PST on Sunday, November 14st. The winners will be announced next week on the site. Good luck!
Please consider my 12yo son for the books. He has read the first Alex Rider book and is very excited about the whole series. He is already designing his gadget for the contest. Plus, he keeps stealing my make magazine issues and I need to get him something else to read!

I've never even heard of Alex Rider or Anthony Horowitz but I like books. Do I get the pity vote?

My Son and Daughter would love to share a book in the series, they're both tearing up my make magazines (I really need to hide them to read them!).
They're planning their spring hackfest/buildparty for a fort with massive facilities for spying on the neighboring cows, ducks, stars, and people.

I've given multiple copies of stormbreaker to kids as presents. I'd love to share a few of the newer ones with those same kids.
