I like my wizards in leather, my shifters in the streets(and sheets), and my skylines full of magic.

This is the novels, novellas, novelettes (if they exists on Pagebound), first book of the series and one book from the best author that are nominated for a Hugo Award in 2026. I personally need an overview on what to catch on for the votes (closing beginning of August :))
