Publishing services
Are you unsure about your book’s structure? Do you need help with marketing? Missing a cover design? We provide the following services:
We offer a one-time editorial assessment of your manuscript starting at €150. An experienced editor will read the entire text and evaluate the structure, narrative, and overall viability of the work. You’ll receive concrete suggestions for structural changes, focus areas, and improvements. This review helps you understand how your manuscript might be developed further before publication or contract negotiations. The service does not include actual editing — it is expert and honest feedback.
We offer a one-off cover design service based on your book’s content and target audience. The designer will review your manuscript or its summary and propose a visual concept that supports the genre and mood of the work. You receive a professionally executed cover that works in digital distribution channels and stands out in the market. The design is created in collaboration with the author and includes necessary rounds to finalize the result. The service focuses specifically on the cover’s concept and execution.
We offer a one-off design service for marketing materials to support your book’s visibility across channels. This includes essential visuals tailored to your book’s identity, such as social media images, banners, or promotional graphics. The design is based on the book’s content, target audience, and chosen distribution channels. You receive a clear and unified visual package that is easy to use in marketing — but the service does not include carrying out the marketing itself.

How Publishing Works at Book Brothers?
Our publishing process is streamlined and transparent — whether you choose audiobook, e-book, print, or a combination of all formats.
1. Initial Conversation
Submit your manuscript or contact us for a no-obligation discussion. We’ll review your project and explore the most suitable publishing model and formats for your goals.
2. Publishing Plan & Creative Brief
Once we move forward, we define your publishing plan. This includes format selection (audiobook, e-book, print, or all), production scope, and timeline. For cover design, you’ll complete a short creative brief to guide our design team.
3. ISBN & Publishing Setup
We allocate the necessary ISBN(s) and prepare your title for professional publication across selected formats and territories.
4. Editing, Design & Formatting
Your manuscript is professionally formatted according to industry standards. You will receive a sample layout for approval before full production begins. Cover design and interior layout are finalized in collaboration with you.
5. Agreement & Production
Once the creative elements are approved, we formalize the publishing agreement digitally and proceed with full production — including audiobook recording if selected.

You can calculate an estimated price for audiobook production using our pricing calculator. Please note that the final price may vary depending on the publishing agreement.




Äänikirjalukija: Lotta Merenmies
Millaisia tarinoita 2000-luvun suomipop-hittien taustalta löytyy?
Miten Samu Haber, Anna Puu, Mariska ja Laura Närhi työskentelevät? Mistä Herra Ylppö, Irina ja Mikko Harju saavat ideoita sanoituksiinsa? Miten Nelli Matula, Roope Salminen ja Aurora ovat muuttuneet musiikintekijöinä? Millainen suhde Tero Vesterisellä, Terhi Kokkosella, Johannes Brotheruksella ja Leolla on sanoituksiinsa? Miten Happoradio, Maustetytöt, Indica ja Kuningasidea saavuttivat läpimurtonsa? Mikä saa Uniklubin ja Discon jatkamaan musiikin tekemistä vielä yli kaksi vuosikymmentä läpimurron jälkeen?
Jokainen lauluntekijä kertoo yhdestä, uransa kannalta erityisen merkittävästä sanoituksesta. Kullakin heistä on oma, uniikki tapansa tehdä musiikkia.

Matti Salminen on yksi musiikin historian suurista bassolaulajista, jonka ainutlaatuinen ääni ja väkevä persoona ovat jättäneet syvän jäljen oopperan maailmaan.
Ura oopperalavoilla kesti yli puoli vuosisataa. Hänen tulkintojaan tärkeimmistä bassorooleista - liedistä ja kevyestä musiikista, on taltioitu yli 50 albumille.Wienin, Berliinin ja Münchenin oopperatalot ovatpalkinneet hänet alan korkeimmalla tunnustuksilla. New Yorkin Metropolitanissa hän on esiintynyt useammin kuin kukaan muu suomalainen mieslaulaja.
Hän on suomalaisen kulttuurin suurlähettiläs, jonka perintö elää vielä pitkään tulevien sukupolvien keskuudessa.
Petri Tuomi-Nikulan kirjoittama elämäkerta värikkään ja dramaattisen elämän eläneestä taiteilijasta oli arvostelu- ja myyntimenestys, joka on ilmestynyt nyt äänikirjana.

Suomessa elettiin 1970-luvun alussa vielä vahvaa Urho Kekkosen kautta, maan kaupungistumisen, taloudellisen ja hyvinvointivaltion kehittymisen aikaa.
Vesimiehen aika kertoo kahden nuoren naisen, Maikin ja Annikin ystävyydestä ja heidän liftimatkastaan Euroopassa vuonna 1971. Tarina kerrotaan Maikin kirjoittaman matkapäiväkirjan kautta. Annikki lukee matkapäiväkirjaa yli 40 vuotta myöhemmin matkallaan Tukholmaan ja joutuu samalla pohtimaan heidän ystävyyttään ja sen päättymistä. Kerronnassa lomittuvat Annin elämän vaiheet hänen jäätyään eläkkeelle sekä kertomus tyttöjen yhteisestä matkasta, joka alkoi myös laivamatkalla Tukholmaan.
Ulla-Kirstin Junttilan romaani perustuu osittain kirjailijan omiin liftimatkoihin Euroopassa 1970-luvun alkuvuosina.
