Fraud I feel that Alpha Books Solutions is scamming Me for my money and I am caught up in a fraud. My Name is Daniel Sheppard I am the Author of "Dead Reckoning Justice by Any Means Necessary" In March I contracted with Alpha Books solutions @ Alpha Books Solutions .com I contracted and paid one thousand dollars to self publish my book :Dead Reckoning, After exchanging e-mails with the marketing / sales director Christine Anderson I submitted my completed edited manuscript and we also revised the cover to the book which I approved. I was assured by Ms Anderson that my book would be printed by the end of August or no later than September however on October first I received a Docu-sign contract in which she stated that all of the preliminary work was done and Alpha was ready to print and publish, the work since then I have not heard any more from Ms Anderson she does not respond to any of my e-mails nor can I get her or anyone from Alpha on the phone at the # listed for Alpha books of Indianapolis, Indiana. Wickipedia lists Alpha as a subsidiary of Penguin/Random House however Penguin disavows having no knowledge of Alpha Books.

Alpha is impossible to communicate My softcover book was published on 7/30/21. In September, the hardcover came but the front cover was printed off-centered and wrong paper. Since then, 3 hardcover sample came but all of their front cover were off-centerd and wrong paper and printed blurred. By this time it was December. None of them was acceptable. Finally the last decent (not perfect but I accepted) sample came on 2/13/22. I was told I should receive my authores books in one moneth, (March). But I still don't receive my author's books yet (6/1/22 today), even though Barnes and Noble sell them on line. I bought it for a trial, it came in 5 days. It was correct one, so it is there. It has been10 months since I have been waiting for my hardcover. It has been a nightmare since last August. My first rep did not answer my email often and disappeared 2 weeks at a time and quit. At the New year, a new rep came and soon quit, I don't have a rep now. My readers received an unapproved bad hardcover copies which Alpha promised they will exchange to the right one but it is not done yet. Each time I emailed Alpha, the answer is "currently, response time is 5 to 7 business days", but even after 10 business days, nobody answers. Also, I notified that the Alpha's bookstore on their website does not functioning right for the shipping cost. Shipping for U.S. and Europe both shows $49.95. Nothing is done. I feel like I am being harassed.

Excited to get my book published finally I'm so excited to finally get my book started. Alpha Book Publisher had claimed that my book can be published in 30 days. At first, I didn't believe them. But after 14 days, we've actually gotten to the point where this is possible. So excited!!! My book goes to print next week!?

The worst company I've ever worked… The worst company I've ever worked with. After 12 months and 8 attempts of editing they failed to deliver a mistake free copy. The books they promised me haven't been delivered after 51 days. I'm still waiting. They also sent me an email stating there is no money in the budget for marketing, even though the plan I purchased includes marketing. Terrible experience and extremely frustrating.

They made the whole process of… They made the whole process of publishing my book so easy. I would definitely recommend them.
