Book of the Night is Åcon’s book circle: we select a book to read, and gather to discuss it together at the convention. Book of the Night takes place after the official con programming is over for the night, so we can stay and chat for as long as we like!
This year’s book is Way Station, by Clifford Simak. Read more on our site: https://aconfourteen.wordpress.com/book-of-the-night/
Membership sales for Åcon 14 are now open! Membership fee is 30 €.
More info on how to register on our website. See you in Mariehamn May 14!
Emily Tesh, talking about sentimentality in fiction:
“Especially when you are dealing with the realm of the fantastic, it’s very easy to tip over into pure sentimentality, which is when you are more interested in the aesthetic power of emotion than what you’re actually saying with it.”
She wasn’t talking about Doctor Who, but honestly that quote basically lays out one of my biggest issues with much of the latest RTD Who
Åcon 14 is proud to announce our Guest of Honour: Hugo and World Fantasy Award–winning author Emily Tesh!
Åcon 14 will take place in Mariehamn on May 14–17, 2026.
