SotS was in a deal on Amazon (the Paradox Package), which gives Steam keys. Have entered other invalid/duplicate keys today? If so, you may be just temporarily locked out on activating keys on Steam (it just says "invalid key" not matter what you enter - completely valid keys wouldn't work for an hour or two.

Try to get in contact with him but if you really can't reach him, after the 7-day waiting period just mark the gift as not received. I'm guessing you could also contact the mods about it.
Also, make sure you wrote the key correctly on Steam, without spaces at the beginning or end. I once sent a key to someone and he kept saying that he got an invalid key message, but on my account it simply said that I already owned the game. He finally managed to get it working after a few more tries.

He probably bought one of the older packs on amazon, which do not activate on steam. Basically, it's useless for you, as you would also need the amazon download from his library. I'd say, let him know he made a mistake and mark it as not received, I guess.

The main point of the thread was seeking advice on the activation

It's from amazon and he should have received a key for steam along with the non steam key as well.
Try to contact the gifter.
I bought the bundle from amazon and they provide you with a key that I have no idea where to redeem, but they also sent me a steam redeemable key in mail. He either got one on his mail or it's on his amazon page.
Edit : Also please remove the link from the topic description.

One key is probably for registering the game on Paradox forums, gives you access to their tech support and a shiny icon next to your avatar :)

considering, its swords and stars complete, which was one of the games that was recently given a steam key, I think it was probably brought in June but i could be wrong. But also considering that key doesnt work I'm guessing it is what I said; also he should take that key down because it can still be used to register on Paradox's website.
