LQ In a Nutshell
With over 70 Queens we always find the right match to keep your voice and style perfectly consistent in a new market. We take care of everything for you, from translations to editing, proofreading and even beta reading and ARCs. All you need to do is publish.
Thanks to our large partner network, we've got a pool of around 1,000 narrators at your disposal. Depending on budget, experience and popularity, we'll find the perfect narrator for your story and manage the entire production for you, including pronounciation, script errors, adaptions and mastering.
Translations are a big investment, but AI should really be your last option. If you're looking for quality translations, but have a strict budget, Co-Publishing might be for you. You retain all rights, and we split the translation cost, until the remaining half is recouped through royalties.
If you're looking to get a foot into the actual German book industry, we're proud to finally offer a professional print distribution for your translated books. Get out of the PoD chokehold and enjoy better margins and better quality books for your readers.

"I absolutely love working with Literary Queens. I now have them translating my books into German, French and Italian! Their communication is great, they do a great job and the time it takes to complete a project is very reasonable. I can't recommend their translation services enough and look forward to working with them on future projects."

The whole team is wonderful - professional, responsive, helpful, and just a pleasure to deal with. Taking the leap to have my first translation done was daunting, but the process has honestly been seamless with Literary Queens. They genuinely love what they do and care about their clients. I won't be using anyone else."

"Working with Literary Queens was a wonderful experience. When I started looking into translations, I was overwhelmed. There are so many aspects to consider and it was difficult to know who I could trust. I am so grateful I found Literary Queens. They walked me through the process, answered questions, and completed the work with ease. I didn't have to stress or worry about what was happening. They took care of connecting me with excellent translators and brought my stories to new audiences. I highly recommend them."

"I absolutely love working with Literary Queens translations. The entire crew is top-notch, professional, responsible, thorough, and so so kind. They take care of everything so I can relax and enjoy the process. They answer all of my questions and always go above and beyond. They found me German bloggers and reviewers and have helped to make each launch a far greater success than it would have been if I was doing it on my own--and readers love the translated versions of my books! I feel very lucky to have found them and would one hundred percent recommend them to any author looking to have their books translated."
