We’re going to Dragonsteel Nexus 2025!!! I mean this isn’t news, I have mentioned this before. It is however the first SFF convention we will have attended, and we couldn’t be more excited.
Dragonsteel Nexus has been growing and growing in popularity since the first “mini-con” in 2021 and is now one of the largest fantasy conventions around. The event is organised by Dragonsteel Books, Brandon Sanderson’s publishing company and offers an inclusive event for fans of Sanderson and Fantasy/Sci-Fi all round.
I’ve been planning to attend some form of convention for a while and after being unable to attend WorldCon in Seattle this Summer, it’s great to be able to commit to DSNX25 from December 4-7th in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Curious King will have a booth at the convention with examples of our books for people to peruse. We should have most releases we’ve completed and will likely bring some prototypes of upcoming releases. Sadly, we won’t have any books for sale at the show, but that’s largely your fault for buying them up so quickly…
Worry not, we will have a couple of items for purchase which will be EXCLUSIVE to DSNX25! We’ll be bringing a box full of bookmarks which you can buy for $3 a pop, and some kind of bundle if you want them all (TBC). The main items you may want to purchase if attending are the print and pin!
