Aventine Press was rated "outstanding" in Mark Levine's book The Fine Print of Self-Publishing

"When I decided to publish my book, Special, I took considerable time to find a self-publisher that was above all reputable, easy to work with and affordable. I had a distant relative mail me two books that his father had published through Aventine Press. I was quite amazed with both books. They were attractively and professionally bounded and printed. I searched the Internet for any complaints on several self-publishing companies, all of which were much larger and more well known than Aventine. They all had several negative comments documented against them except for one single company...Aventine. In fact, I found nothing but extremely positive reviews for them. So I decided to go with Aventine and I am delighted to say that I have not regretted my decision. Both Keith Pearson and Ryan Ratiff did a wonderful job with by book that included a large cover photograph, several pictures within the interior, plus over two hundred and fifty pages of text. Additionally, the proofs and the completed book were finished long before the expected time frames. Both Keith and Ryan were a pleasure to work with. When my second book is ready for publishing, I will certainly return to them. They have my highest regard and endorsement."

"My author experience with Aventine Press has been excellent.  They made the process of publishing my first novel far easier than I ever expected.  Their responsiveness to my questions and requests has made being a published author a wonderful experience.  Now that you've found Aventine Press, do not be afraid to move forward.  Their teamwork is amazing."

- Mike Scanlon, author of "The Best Good Time"

"Keith Pearson at Aventine is amazing--incredibly patient, willing to work with special requests, returns phone calls and e-mails quickly, is upbeat and positve. He downloaded a special font set to make sure the Hawaiian words in my manuscript were spelled and punctuated correctly in the final product. Aventine's contract is straightforward and easy to understand. Their graphic designer, Ryan Ratliff, designed a beautiful cover using one of my Hawaiian sunset photos and created a website that is exactly what I had in mind. Take a look at www.riverthroughtime.com I highly recommend Aventine for a superb publishing experience!"

"With some trepidation, I decided to have my book, When The Roses Bloom, re-edited and then re-published. The previous publisher had done an excellent job with the book cover and layout; however all of their other services left much to be desired. Keith Pearson of Aventine Press listened patiently to all of my concerns about re-publishing and then he and designer, Ryan Ratliff, went about their business of producing a superb product that met or exceeded all of my desires. And they did so quickly, at a lower set-up cost and with higher royalty payments available to me. Please take a look at www.whentherosesbloom.com to view the excellent job Aventine Press has done for me. I recommend them for a superb publishing experience."

"Great...I'm also talking to other writers who may want to do a book. Did you see the movie "Sideways"? I guess that failed writer in the movie hadn't heard of Aventine..."

- Douglas Herman,author of "The Guns of Dallas"

"Using Aventine for our first book was the best decision we ever made! After extensive research and comparison shopping Aventine has more than lived up to their excellent reputation. The publishing process was smooth and timely. Keith Pearson's professionalism and help made our experience painless. Ryan Ratliff's enhancements to our submitted cover design were great and much appreciated. We would recommend Aventine to anyone looking for a publisher, and will use them again in future."
