Open Discussion — What's worth considering for the ballot in 2026?

 The following list will be updated over the next few months as we read, watch, and listen to Hugo-eligible works for 2026. These are not necessarily what we plan to nominate, but rather works that at least one member of the Edmonton Hugo Book Club has enjoyed and believes to be worth consideration. We appreciate any additional suggestions in the comments.
