I have to say this one looks like a pretty good list overall. I like that Stephen King and his son, Joe Hill, are battling for another award: NOS4A2 and Doctor Sleep are also nominees for the 2013 Stoker.

I’m glad to see The Republic of Thieves get a nomination in Fantasy. I liked the first two books in this series, but the third was absolutely amazing.
