I wanted to put my life’s experiences into a book but had no idea how to even start. I contacted UK Book Publishing and I am so glad I did. I cannot compliment them enough. They helped me through every step, planning, writing, chapters, proofreading through to design and finally publishing. They made my experience of writing my book exciting. They are a fantastic price, don’t take royalties yet help you with solid advice. I would highly recommend this company. Thank you to all at UK Publishing for a fantastic job.
I was really impressed with the quality of the service provided by the friendly team at UK Book Publishing. I felt expertly guided through the process of publishing my debut novel. The end result was stunning and I couldn’t be happier or prouder of how well it has turned out!
The team were excellent - quick turnaround of drafts/cover page/back page/ blurb etc. You get instant, free advice from experts who are flexible and responsive. I can't guarantee they won't charge for changes, but they made a couple of small but important changes for me at no cost. Finally, and most importantly, I couldn't be more impressed with the quality of the finished product.
An absolutely fantastic service from start to finish. Dan and the team were incredibly patient, professional and helpful throughout the entire publishing process. I couldn't recommend them more highly.
UK Book Publishing helped me self-publish my first novel. They guided me through every step with patience and professionalism. The finished product is beautiful and I'm thrilled with the result.
Excellent service. The book looks fantastic and the whole process was smooth and stress-free. Dan was always available to answer questions and provide guidance. Highly recommended.
I used UK Book Publishing for my memoir and couldn't be happier. The cover design was stunning, the proofreading thorough, and the printed book is indistinguishable from any you'd find in Waterstones.
From the initial enquiry to holding the finished book, the service was outstanding. Professional, friendly and great value. I've already recommended them to fellow authors.
Superb quality and a truly personal service. Dan took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and delivered beyond my expectations. The ebook and print versions both look wonderful.
Here's more great feedback from authors!

"I published my children's novel 'Oslo' with UK Book Publishing and I was very impressed and happy with the service and support from day one. And with the final result. The team are very approachable, friendly and professional. I felt supported enough in the areas where I wasn't experienced, but listened to and understood on the points where I did have a specific idea of how I wanted things."
— Stephen Bench-Capon, author of Oslo
"I can't begin to explain my emotions when I opened up my book cover and content design that the team had put together. I was utterly speechless. They have been fun, kind and patient from the start and most importantly, the content they produce is of the most professional standard. If you were intending on releasing your own book and are toying with whether or not to use the services of UK Book Publishing, read all the glowing reviews and do it. They'll change your life."
— Becci Abbott, author of So Your Child Is a Complete Arsehole
"A huge thank to UK Book publishing for helping me realise my dream of publishing my first book. I am very grateful to Ruth and Judith for their time and support which made what I always imagined to be a challenging process into a pleasant and easy one, and to Jay for his brilliant artistry which went into designing the cover. It is even better than I imagined."
— Kiri, author of Jagged on the Inside
"From start to finish, UK Book Publishing have been exemplary in their handling of my first published novel. I could never have envisioned the finished article would look as perfect as it did. I will be returning to them once the sequel is finished. Thank you everyone for helping my dream come true."
— Ali Round, author of Pondering Through Time
"It was such a thrill to receive the 'gift wrapped' copy of Spanish House Secrets. Your encouraging voice on the other end of my initial, tentative phone call gave me the confidence to believe I could actually hold a copy of my book in my hands one day. It has been a pleasure to work with UK Book Publishing."
— Susan Gray, author of Spanish House Secrets
"I did look at a lot of other publishing houses – but none made me feel so positive as UK Book Publishing. Right from the very start UK Book Publishing had my interest as the main centrepiece of all of our conversations. The finished article is way above and beyond expectations that I had at the very start."
— Michael FitzGerald, author of Nosey Nora"I am very pleased to have chosen UK Book Publishing to publish my book. I am very happy with the excellent service I have received. Ruth could not have done more for me, helping me at every stage of the process in an encouraging and supportive manner. Jay also provided a wonderful front cover."
— Beth James, author of A Touchy Subject
"I can highly recommend the terrific team at ukbookpublishing.com. They are efficient and are a great bunch of people to work with who understand your needs. The manuscript was in a real state, but with Ruth Lunn's editorial skills and Jay Thompson, designer, together with Dan Brady, their managing director, the book became a reality."
— Peter and Sonja Williams, authors of The Valley of the Damned
"We really enjoyed the entire process of producing our book. Both Dan and Jay were extremely enthusiastic, inventive and supportive throughout each stage, from the project proposal to actual book launch. They produced a beautiful book which is proving very popular with the people of the north east of England."
— Annie Cunningham, Newcastle University
"My book languished with a regular publisher for 4 years after many broken promises, I decided to switch to you and was very pleased with the prompt response. It wasn't even as expensive as I thought it would be. My book is selling much better than I expected. At the age of 88 you have helped me achieve a lifelong ambition."
— Gwen Hoskins, author of Winds of Change"When embarking on the Northumbria Bird Atlas the Northumberland & Tyneside Bird Club made a highly fortunate decision in choosing UK Book Publishing. To say that we are happy with the finished article is something of an understatement. I have already received many comments as to the quality of the printing and the immaculate presentation."
— Tim Dean, Northumberland & Tyneside Bird Club
"This is my 3rd book published with UK Book Publishing, so that speaks volumes in itself - no pun intended! My thanks to all for guiding me yet again to get it published. I would most certainly advise any up and coming authors to use their services."
— Barry Woodhouse, author of The Stabber of the Sky, One Gunner's War, and The Day That Should Have Changed the World
"While looking for a publisher, I was searching for continual assistance, reliability, dedication, understanding, professional approach in the final product being developed. The book has been a dream to design and for the UK Book Publishing team to have understood the book from the start, I think that's a company that understands, listens and delivers."
— M C S Antoniou, author of Floral Design and Blossom
"Some publishers want to be your manager or want to have say in the content of a book. All I wanted was someone to proof read it, put any references or spelling/comprehension right, do all the hard work. I was very happy with the service, honestly more happy than I would've even hoped for. It's been a great experience and a great service."
— Gavin Webster, author of Buddhism and Other Such Rubbish!
"We are new to the field of book publishing and UK Book Publishing helped us through all of the hoops we had to jump through. Getting all of these aspects right is essential for a professional looking book. You need someone who has done this many times before to guide you through the process."
— Frank Mason, author of Property Accounting with Sage
