Romantasy fans were out in droves at New York City's BookCon 2026, and if you were one of those attending, you probably had every intention of making your way to a little panel called Into the World of Romantasy: Exploring the Marriage Between Genres featuring authors Adalyn Grace, Stacia Stark, and Elise Kova.

But in case you couldn't make it and still want to hear what the authors of All the Stars and Teeth, We Who Will Die, and A Deal with the Elf King had to say, never fear. Popverse was lucky enough to be in the audience for the show, and they even let us bring a camera in.

This is one of the many Bookcon 2026 panels Popverse filmed at New York City's Javits on the Hudson. Consult our Bookcon 2026 panel hub for a list of all of the panels we have available, and what's left to be released.
