Weekend Book Giveaway: Steelheart

This week's book Steelheart by Brandon Sanderson describes an super-human Steelheart  who appears invincible and the everyday man heroically standing up to this bigger than life human. Sanderson's new thriller comes out this month and already has 13 holds on it.

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.





For a chance to win, tell me what superpower you would have if it could be anything and if you would use if for good or evil.


Winner will be selected with Random Number Generator on Tuesday, September 17, 2013. Be sure to leave a name with your entry, and check back to see if you won. To win you must be a teen (6th-12th grade, or 12-18) who uses a Sno-Isle Library.

I would have the power of flight too, and I would also use it for good by dumping confetti on people to cheer them up. I would also probably play a lot more practical jokes, but I don't consider that evil.
