12 and 14 year old boy present ideas

My older two ds are 12 and 14. I have a few present ideas but struggling with books. They were into Tom Gates, Diary of a wimpy kid etc but need something new. The 14 year old likes adventure/fantasy books. He is autistic and reading is one of his loves.

Other ideas I've had so far are:
Sports clothes
Costa coffee vouchers
Cinema vouchers
PS4 console
PS4 games
Smellies sets for stockings
Chocolate

It's so much more difficult when they get older. ConfusedHelp

My ds13 loves the Darren Shan books. A friend gave him them and I expected them to be too scary (dr who is his limit!) but he loves them and is finishing one every 2 days!

Before that is was Alex rider, before that Tom Gates (aged 11-12)

That's great. I'll have a look. Thank you.

Books: The Cherub series are excellent, by Robert Muchamore. When my DS was 13 he went through one book a fortnight, which was great for him.
He enjoyed them more than the Alex rider books, but he loved them too.

Remote led lights that are in a strip to go behind/on top/ in front of tv screen.
Cheap and quite cool looking.
From Amazon I think. My 18 year old has them on his desk.
