Authors on the Rise Book Reviews is a division of Authors on the Rise, Inc. We branched outward with this portion of the business due to the overwhelming response we received for this service.
We understand the importance and need for authors to receive reputable reviews to add to their portfolios and to assist in their sales. Book reviews are a must in this industry and we are pleased to be able to offer this service to you freely. We receive many books for review so it does take up to 6 to 8 weeks for your reviews to be processed; however, we also offer at reasonably priced expedited reviews which are usually returned to you within two to three weeks depending upon current demand.
Another must in the industry is allowing the readers/fans a place to find out about the new books on the market. With their being an influx in self-published authors and small press publishers it is has become difficult for the industry to accept and appreciate the new writers of today. The author's world is changing with the changing of technology and the ability to control their work as a means to ensure they are the true profiteer of their work. Large press publishers are the forerunners but the authors of today are about to give them all a run for their money with help from companies such as Authors on the Rise and Authors on the Rise Book Reviews stepping forward to offer services that for so long have been withheld due to politics and money. We are extremely happy to be able to focus on the small presses and the self-published authors and do our best to provide you with substantial reviews and critiques that will enable you to make it as an author in today's market.
We wish all our authors and small press publishers the best in their endeavors to become successful and we hope that we can be a part of making your dreams a reality.
