A Manuscript Embarking The Global Stage

“Kevin and his team — highly recommended and a wonderful professional to work with.”

Gabriela came to Embark Book Publishers with her manuscript for Athena: The Adventures of a Fearless Dragon — a children's book about a fearless dragon with a powerful message for young readers. Our team handled global publishing and distribution end to end, launching Athena across 10+ major retail platforms worldwide. Today, Athena is available to readers everywhere — from Amazon to Barnes & Noble to Kobo, OverDrive libraries, Goodreads, and beyond. This is what Embark does for every author.

How It Works

From Manuscript to Market in 4 Steps

A clear, guided process. You always know what happens next.

1
Submit and Consult

Share your manuscript and goals. We assign you a dedicated Publishing Strategist who maps out the right plan for your book and timeline.

2
We Get to Work

Your team of editors, designers, and formatters begins. You receive regular progress updates and can give feedback at every stage.

3
Review & Approve

We present the finished product for your review. Request changes freely and we revise until every detail is exactly what you envisioned.

4
Publish & Launch

Your book goes live across all selected platforms. We handle the technical publishing process end-to-end, then hand you the keys.

Why Embark

What Other Publishers Won't Tell You

Most publishing services bury fees, hide timelines, and vanish after delivery. Embark is built differently, starting with radical transparency.

  • Flat-Rate, Published Pricing

    No pricing available upon request games. You know the cost before the first call and it never changes.

  • Guaranteed 14-Day Turnaround

    Standard packages delivered in 14 business days or less, with timeline expectations documented in writing from kickoff.

  • One Dedicated Publishing Strategist

    One point of contact for your entire project, with no handoffs, no confusion, and no re-explaining your vision each week.

  • You Keep 100% of Royalties

    We charge for services, not a cut of your earnings. Every dollar your book makes is yours, forever.
