Dragon Con 2026
Big News for the Market at Dragon Con 2026, we'll be expanding to three spaces! I'm making a bold decision and not adding more authors to this extra space. instead, the authors are going to have a little more room to spread out. We are also moving a lot of books and we needed some extra space to store them all. You can expect to see more big names signing with us this year. Check out the list below to see who you can find.
We will also be doing a preorder around June where you can order signed copies you can pick up any time during vendor hall hours.
Matt Dinniman
Matt will be back for 2026! We'll have all Dungeon Crawler Carl books as well as Operation Bounce House. You can preorder his books in July for pickup and reserve a spot to meet him in person at his Dragon Con signing in August.
