Olympia Publishers Reviews 

Their thorough and systematic approach ensures high-quality results.

I'm a first time writer aged 78. After some hesitation I decided to submit a manuscript to three publishers. Olympia's response was timely and positive.They seemed to have the most professional team and general organisation compared to the others. I appreciated the patience of Production Co-ordinater as my book (On the Bench) went back and forth with changes and corrections. We are now at the launch prep time. The publicity strategy looks impressive. I'm now looking forward to see how it all unfolds to what I believe is a wide market.

I sent my book to Olympia in the hope of getting some feedback. They offered me a contract and so far they have lived up to my expectations. My book is due out on the eighth of May and as this is my first I am really excited. I have worked with Olympia responding professionally and promptly to all their emails. I believe that you get out of this process what you are willing to put in. So far my experience has been a very positive one and I would recommend Olympia to any aspiring writer.

Any so-called publisher who can't write a proper sentence or two in response to your submission merits no respect; if they can't write, how can they judge if you can write? They're after your money, not because they think your work has merit, but because they think that you are a sucker. That's it.

As a writer (Will J. MacQuoid is my pen name) with a new and innovative style of literature, including poetry, Olympia Publishers were enthusiastic to take me on, inspiring me to submit more work! The process from submission to publication is relatively easy, and you can always rely on the team at Olympia Publishers to help you during the process. An outstanding experience to be an Olympia Publishers' Author!

Writing and publishing historical fiction is a challenge. Finding the right publisher is as well. In my case, Olympia proved the right publisher in terms of collaboration and communication. It takes a lot of time, energy and knowledge to write a historical novel. You want it to be amusing, diversionary, and enchanting. You want your novel to be contagious for your convictions. You have to believe in your work, that history is not only a fascinating tale in itself but is a well honed instrument with which we can understand our times, our neighbors and perhaps ourselves. I am happy to have found Olympia as my publisher of two substantial and attractive books.

I had an overall positive experience working with OLYMPIA PUBLISHERS for the publication of my book. From start to finish, the process was smooth and professional, even though it took a year from contracting to publication.

The journey began with a clear and transparent contracting phase, where all aspects of the agreement were well-explained. From there, the house styling process ensured that my work aligned with the publisher’s high standards while still preserving my artistic vision.

The cover design process, however, was somewhat disappointing. I felt that the proposals lacked creativity and effort. In the end, in order to move forward, I chose one of the options without being completely satisfied.

Their proofreading process was satisfactory, though it left several issues that required my attention. However, the production coordinator was always available to review and address these points as many times as needed.

Finally, we are just beginning the publicity and promotion phase, so I don’t have enough perspective to share my thoughts on this phase yet.

Overall, I recommend OLYMPIA PUBLISHERS to any author looking for a professional and supportive publishing experience!

Yes they got my book online in book stores. However, they placed it in the completely wrong genre, sent it to the wrong book reviwers (It's a young adult book, they submitted it under adult sci-fi) Also, they went to print when their editor (i'm pretty sure they use people where English is not their first language; as there were tons of spelling, grammar, & punctuation mistakes)

As a result i'm enquiring about having the rights released back to me. I have also spoken to some other authors of theirs, who like me have ended up wanting the rights back, as they messed up their books too.

I signed with them July 2021. Book was released October 2023. I haven't received any communication from them since Summer 2024.

They take over a month to reply to e-mails, when I have e-mailed them.

I hardly go online to write reviews, either I'm extremely happy about a service/business that I want to help promoting them, or i gave them enough time to prove they can do better and yet they failed again and again.
Took me 12 years to write a book, editing it 3 times professionally and searching for publishers.
I understood Olympia publishers are hybrid, but they made me believe that once the agreement is signed, I have my book out there like no other. I raised all my concerns right at the beginning and they assured me they got it. I must admit that I came to realize that they are a one man show business with 20 emails , PR, ops, legal, production, etc. and checked them on linkedin, 1 person , James.
I paid over $4200 to them, the sample covers they provided me were absolute rubbish. Showed me how careless they are on what they are putting out there. But again, I said to myself, you are overthinking.
Long story short, after 2 years of waiting, they finally published my book, (with the cover I made somewhere else and paid for it seperately), full of mistakes, and ZERO ZERO ZERO marketing and PR. They asked me to send them emails of the neighbouring book stores to email them, which they didn't (I could do it myself).
I can write for 2 days here, JUST DON"T BE AN IDIOT and TRUST ME ON THIS. DO NOT waste your money. As a writer to another writer with so much of hopes and dreams, please don't waste your money on them. you are better off self publishing it. Don't bother their reply to this comments, I've been talking to them for over 4 months before I wrote this review and they are fully aware of what they did.

So far so good for my first book. Took a little while to get this far but proof-reading was very professional and now moving at pace, with publication due in mid-March. Looking forward to some publicity and sales!

It's so disheartening to read a bad review. I have now published two books with Olympia and have had nothing but professional friendly advice and service. It is a timely process but the end result is worth the effort. They work with you and for you; of course they cannot guarantee sales, the market is flooded with books and as an unknown author marketing is extremely difficult. The reward is the beautiful book that together with Olympia you have created.

Olympia Publishers has made this experience exciting and painless from submission to notifying me of the release date. His Sword Cordelia will be available for readers with their help and guidance soon. Looking forward to having my next book Ink at the Sandstone published by them next.

I am a first-time author and have very much enjoyed working with the team at Olympia Publishers so far on my journey! They are responsive and organized, and care about the success of my book!

Olympia Publishing has consistently worked professionally with me in the production and marketing of my novels. The entire Olympia staff has been responsive and helpful in all publication stages. Keep up the great work!

Olympia Publishers is great and completely helpful.

Olympia publishers have helped me make my dream become a reality in becoming an author having my first ever book to be released for the World to read and enjoy, they are a friendly and helpful company taking me through everything step by step and making this experience worth it, I look forward to working with them on my future projects too.

As a first time author I couldn't ask for a better publisher. Informative and supportive throughout the process. Bec and Amy Cross are a true asset to the company. Thank you ladies!

As a first time author who needed coaching, Olympia publishers delivered, try them.

The editors at Olympia were prompt, polite and had good suggestions. I am pleased with the cover and so far the publicity team seems to be on top of things. All good!

I had an excellent experience working with the Olympia Publishers. Their team was professional, responsive, and highly supportive throughout the entire publishing process. They offered valuable insights and suggestions to improve my manuscript, while still respecting my vision. I'm very pleased with the result in terms of quality and presentation. The final product exceeded my expectations in terms of quality and presentation. We are still in the process of promotion, and I hope the experience will continue to be equally high and professional.
