Book Pricing - the simple solution!Dragon Publishing's book pricing includes printing costs, author's royalty and the book sellers trade discount. The chart below is the recommended pricing for books to book sellers before the trade discount.
Note: Other publishers short the discounts to book sellers to inflate author royalties, which hurt your chances of selling through book stores. Our pricing reflects the 55% trade discount given to book sellers.
