Translation Services
Human literary translation into major world languages, so your book reads as though it was written in its new language rather than converted into it.
Machine translation is fine for a menu and disastrous for a novel. Voice, register, idiom and humour are exactly what automated systems flatten, and they are exactly what makes a book worth reading.
How we work
Every project goes to a native-speaker literary translator working in your genre, then to a second-pass reviewer. Terminology, character names and any invented vocabulary are agreed with you before the main pass begins.
What you get back
- A complete translated manuscript, editorially reviewed
- Localised front and back matter, including your author bio
- Cover text and blurb adapted for the target market
- Territory-appropriate metadata and category placement
- Distribution into that language’s retail channels

Native literary translators
Genre-experienced humans, not machine output with a light edit on top.
Two-pass review
A second native reviewer checks voice and consistency before delivery.
Territory distribution
The translated edition is listed into that market’s own retail channels.
