ShieldCrest Publishing Reviews 

Publishing a book for the first time can feel overwhelming, but ShieldCrest made the journey far more manageable and rewarding. I am very happy with the service I received and would gladly recommend them to other aspiring authors looking for guidance and support in bringing their book to life.

I had an excellent experience when ShieldCrest Publising accepted and worked with my manuscript. As a first-time author, the publishing world can be rather daunting. However, as stated on their website they came back to me within 4 days. The process was quick and efficient. Unfortunately, due to personnal circumstances I could not proof read the final manuscript for several weeks. There was no pressure from SheildCrest and once I had completed the amendments the book was beautifully produced to a high standard.
I’m so so pleased with the final result. A big thank you to Leigh Stevenson and the team.
Highly recommended for anyone wanting to bring their story to fruition.

Ordered a book which was difficult to procure but this company supplied it and at a good price.

Great service. From order to delivery was a breeze and arrived really quickly.

I received the items eventually...........in good order but I had to wait in excess of 10 days from my original order.............slow to say the least

My book, Maurice and Hermione, has just been published and I'm very happy with the result. Steve and Chris have worked hard to get it ready for Christmas at a time when obviously things are very hectic.So I thank everyone at Shield Crest very much. If ever I write another manuscript that's where I shall send it.

Quick and efficient

I’m a first time author Sheildcrest have been supportive all the way especially Leigh Stephenson my first children's book has been published beautifully highly recommended

I cannot recommend ShieldCrest Publishing highly enough. From the very beginning to the final stages of publication, their support throughout the journey of publishing my first book, Let the Healing Begin, was nothing short of outstanding. As a first-time author, I had many questions, and the ShieldCrest team took the time to guide me with clarity, patience, and genuine care at every step.

Their professionalism, attention to detail, and responsiveness made what could have been an overwhelming process feel reassuring and well-managed. I always felt listened to, respected, and supported, and nothing ever felt like too much trouble. Beyond the technical expertise, what truly stood out was the encouragement and belief they showed in me and in my message.

I was especially impressed with the global distribution of my book, ensuring Let the Healing Begin is accessible to readers internationally across major platforms and bookstores. ShieldCrest did not simply provide a service they created a supportive partnership that allowed me to publish with confidence and pride.

I am deeply grateful for their dedication, integrity, and consistent excellence, and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to any author looking for a trustworthy and professional publishing team.

Excellent service, easy to order and quick delivery

I purchased the book My RA: A 50 Year Journey by Jasmine Jenkins . I found it a strong positive book for those who are also diagnosed with RA . It is a clear and well written book about the challenges the author has faced over the years and the way she has managed them . It is informative to those with RA and their friends and families. I also think it gives grass roots incite on living day to day and year to year with RA . Useful to medics and those involved with providing support and care .

Had the best experience with shieldcrest publishing. Can not believe how quick and Sufficient every one was. Leigh Stephenson was a pleasure to work with right down to the proofreading, cover design and getting my book out to retailers. Honestly had no faults with the books when they arrived on delivery. Absolutely loved how Leigh Stephenson works with you. You do not feel under pressure at any time on getting your book published. No pressure demanding your book to go on every platform at once. Especially with the cost on publishing can be so expensive. Shieldcrest let you work at your pass and are very understanding and wait until you’re ready to move forward with other platforms on getting your book out there to be seen. So, a big thank to Leigh Stephenson and to shieldcrest publishing team and I will be a 100 % going back to them to publish my next book..

Received my package followed by an invoice from the company. They replied very promptly and politely to a query I had. Would definitely recommend this company.

I had a good service from Shieldcrest. I knew very little about the process and they were good at helping through the various stages. I was able to easily negotiate changes to my book's cover and it all felt easy.

Leigh always responds and answers any questions I may have about the publishing process and has dealt with my past enquiries and amendments quickly and efficiently.

I have recently become an author with ShieldCrest. The whole experience was made 'plain sailing' by this publisher.
My first book "Good Girl Lily" was published in June. Whilst in this process I found the correspondence swift and forthright, taking me through each stage carefully in a helpful manner.
My next project for prospective publication is being looked at as we speak and communication is ongoing.

Excellent service!
I was kept informed regarding the delivery of my order, it arrived on time as promised.
Faultless, thank you

Kept me informed when my order was delayed and great communication when delivery was expected. Excellent service and a complimentary pen too.

Finding the right publisher for my book has always made me anxious. However, my experience with ShieldCrest has been nothing short of amazing! This was my first time publishing a book, and the team made the entire process smooth and stress-free. From the initial consultation to the final stages, they were incredibly supportive, professional, and attentive to every detail. The fact that I am on the other side of the world didn’t even matter, which was one of my biggest fears. I live in the Emirates, and they made the process doable even from a distance. I felt valued and guided every step of the way, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. I highly recommend ShieldCrest to anyone looking to publish their work, especially first-time authors like myself. Hats off to Shieldcrest!!

A special thanks to Leigh Stephenson for being so patient with me! I like my things the way I like them, and it’s rare to work with someone so understanding, accommodating, and flexible with every request, no matter how big or small. I can’t wait to work with him again on my next projects!!
