A rich publishing history
The Book Guild has many years of experience in publishing, which we have used to build a strong reputation in both partnership and mainstream publishing. We provide reliable and professional support to authors in producing, selling and distributing high-quality books.
Based in Market Harborough, Leicestershire, our head office and distribution centre serves authors from across the UK and beyond, helping bring their work to market efficiently and effectively.
Part of the Troubador group
The Book Guild is part of the Troubador Publishing group, which has been a leader in high-quality self-publishing since its establishment in 1996. Troubador is known for producing self-published books that meet or exceed the quality of mainstream published titles on bookshop shelves, using the latest production techniques and materials alongside industry-leading marketing, sales and distribution.
Although their publishing models differ, Troubador and The Book Guild share the same commitment to excellence. Both companies use the same processes to create exceptional books, with a strong focus on quality and outstanding customer service.
Our values
The Book Guild collaborates with authors to craft, promote and distribute high-quality books that captivate readers. We aim to offer a transparent, genuine partnership publishing experience where we are unable to offer a mainstream arrangement. We put authors at the heart of our work and use our expertise to give commercial books the best possible chance of sales success. We are constantly innovating and improving the way we work to benefit our authors and are committed to getting great books out into the market.
