A good book is a winning mix of content, style and graphic, and not always the author has the right expertise to provide alone.
Are there any works that are masterpieces, written very well and with a gripping storyline, but have a bad cover, and the book stays put on the shelves of the library. There are others that will dazzle the sight, that whet the reader's interest and lead him to the purchase, but once the reading started, you stop again because of the insignificant plot or for bad Italian. Word of mouth is counterproductive, the reviews are negative, and the book does not sell.
Libroventura offers a range of publishing services that allow the author to improve his work, both in terms of content, style, that graphic. Taking advantage of industry professionals, both inside and outside the company, we are able to increase the standard of works in a remarkable fashion.

Each service needs of his time and, above all, its cost, but we are ready to offer the attractive discounts to those who decide to take advantage of more services.
