The Book Guild Omdömen 

Every staff member I’ve encountered at The Book Guild has been efficient, pleasant and helpful. The company clearly has a strong customer focused ethos and employs capable, empathetic people who know their jobs.
My book has been produced to a very high standard and I’m delighted with it.
I would unreservedly recommend The Book Guild.

The Book Guild is an approachable, transparent publisher and easy to work with. My questions along my publishing journey were always answered promptly.
I’m very pleased with my novel and how it has been produced, it was good to have my own input taken into consideration during the process.

I was recommended to have a look at Troubador Publishing by a fellow author to publish my first novel, The Trials of Aqouril. I was a bit skeptical initially and while it is an expensive option, I cannot fault the professionalism and organisation of The Book Guild. They are open and transparent at every stage of the process, always happy to communicate if you have any questions and have completed every part of the process (copy-editing, typesetting, cover design) effectively and in a timely manner.
To anyone who is considering publishing a novel, I would definitely recommend them and I would definitely consider using their services again in the future.

As a debut author who considered several different publishing paths, I am thrilled to be working with the phenomenal team at The Book Guild. Rosie, Carolina, Emily and the rest of the staff have been kind, responsive and professional every step of the way. My proofreader did a fantastic job ensuring that the manuscript was ready for publication, and the design team went above and beyond in creating a gorgeous cover that is now garnering an immense amount of praise. Many thanks for your patience and guidance in helping bring THE DIVA'S DAUGHTER to readers!

I would like to leave a review about The Time to Fly by Lyn Asquith I hope this is the correct forum.
I have thoroughly enjoyed reading about Helen who Lyn writes about in her book as though she is a real person so I had empathy with her. I felt close to her character and wanted her to achieve her dream about helping people in need from her lottery win.

From the outset I felt I was in very capable hands. The team was highly professional, always helpful, patient and prompt to respond. The whole process from proof-reading, editing, cover design to marketing was carried through with maximum support and clarity at every stage. I am thrilled with the end-product, and only wish I had found The Book Guild earlier. I would commend them highly.

I found every stage of my work with the Book guild rewarding and helpful. Throughout the process, Rosie, Carolina and Sophie could not have been more positive and encouraging. I was being involved in every stage of the production and met with endless store of patience, even when I offered a 'final correction list' three times.
My thanks to Rosie, Carolina and Sophie. I hope to be working with you again soon.

The contract BG issued was simple and straightforward. The production process (copyediting, typesetting, map-drafting, metadata circulation, ISBN purchasing etc) was detailed and efficient. In addition, key highlights were the quality of the cover produced, and the interaction with BG's team who were without exception friendly, swift to help and professional. However, BG's marketing role has been somewhat frustrating, with no industry reviews obtained so far (6 weeks since publication date), no hard-copy placement in bookshops and only modest social media circulation. Additional professional focus on these areas would be immensely helpful to authors unfamiliar with such matters.

Writing a book is hard, but knowing how to move forward after that, is even harder! The Book Guild's assistance with proof reading and helping me understanding each stage of the process with named individuals who I can contact any time has made the journey considerably easier. I really appreciate the time and guidance I have been given.

I really can't fault them. My publishing experience has been first-class. Publishing a book is a complicated business, and there's far more for the author to do than I'd originally anticipated, but I've felt very well cared for, and everything has been explained at the right time. The book looks fantastic - it's publication day at the end of the month and I'm really excited. Thank you!

The Book Guild have been brilliant with my debut novel To Be Frank guiding me through every stage of the process. The cover design was brilliant. I was totally blown away as it completely matched my vision and they have created a strong brand identity with the book standing out in bookshops. All of the staff are friendly and helpful, getting back to me within the same day. The various departments are staffed by people at the top of their game. I will certainly be looking to return for the sequel.

Really great experience working with a very professional team. There is always someone to answer a query or send it on to the correct person. Transparent and very supportive. I'm so happy to have had my first book ever published by The Book Guild.

I've been working with the Book Guild on my last five novels and would highly recommend them for independent authors who need support to publish their work. The quality of the product they produce is excellent including the design of the book covers. The staff are very professional and provide a great service. It is not necessarily the cheapest option for self publishing but the old adage of you get what you pay for rings true for me.

An absolute pleasure to work with. As an author who only wants to write, I see The Book Guild as an experienced partner, taking the lead on formatting, cover design, publication and distribution. Marketing is a joint effort and it’s been great to work with a publisher that knows the ropes and has the contacts. The best thing about this experience has been their responsiveness. Any question I have, I get an answer straightaway, always helpful, and understanding. Even when I had a panic and decided I wanted late changes, I got an instant phone call and we found a way forward. A huge thank you to the team, I’d recommend them to anyone wanting a transparent and responsive partner in their publishing journey. They really care.

This time last year I had almost finished my first novel. Two weeks ago my advance copies were delivered! The whole process was explained well at the start, and at each step of the publishing journey. I found the whole team to be friendly and responsive. It's a scary thing to do for a first-timer, but the team were incredibly helpful. Each department from editing right through to marketing, have the knowledge and experience of the industry, and made it so much simpler for me than I could have hoped for. I'm part way through my second novel, and will definitely be approaching The Book Guild again when I'm ready to submit.

I've been working with The Book Guild on a partnership publishing project for the past 12 months. Without exception, I've found Book Guild staff to be professional, open, knowledgeable, and forgiving of a published author who is new to partnership publishing. No hidden costs, no unwelcome surprises. Prompt and clear in their communications, they let you know what is happening and when, then stick to it. I'd have no hesitation in recommending their services to other authors.

A very professional team at The Book Guild, hugely experienced in book publishing. Friendly and helpful.

Friendly staff, terrrific efficiency and attention to detail. The Book Guild has published four of my 55 published titles and they compare very favourably with everyone else I´ve worked with.

I couldn’t praise them more highly. Delightful people with a solid degree of knowledge and professionalism. I have published twelve books with them so far with another two on the way, which hopefully says it all.

Publishing a book is not easy and I couldn’t have done it without the Book Guild!!!
The process takes approximately six months, and The Book Guild have honoured their side of the partnership deal with fairness and professionalism at every step.
The publishing trade is a highly competitive, low margin environment, and yet the pressures that I’m sure this brings has never affected The Book Guild’s care of me as an author. Along the journey they have always responded to my needs and questions, (often clumsy ones) with patience and understanding.
With the release date fast approaching, the marketing stage has begun, and I am glad the Book Guild team are onboard to help me promote my book as best I can.

PS - Today I have received an advanced copy, and it looks Amazing!!!
