Joshua Tallent’s eBook Architects programs ebooks for authors and publishers. If you need your book converted to ePUB or Kindle format, then eBook Architects is the place to go. eBook Architects works with authors and publishers of all sizes, designing well-formatted, high-quality ebooks for Kindle, iPad, Nook, and other devices. eBook Architects has a diverse list of clients and partners, including publishers, agents, print book designers, distributors, and independent authors. eBook Architects specializes in creating enhanced ebooks and fixed layout files for all of the major ebook channels. They were the pioneers in this area and probably the first company to do this work. Joshua is a staple of the conference circuit, presenting lively talks on ePUB and what it is all about. Now his company has been acquired by Firebrand Technology, a leading publishing industry technology services company. Firebrand will retain the eBook Architects brand and the staff will continue operating from its offices in Austin, TX.
“Joshua Tallent and the eBook Architects team are the perfect complement to Firebrand,” said Fran Toolan, CEO of Firebrand Technologies. “Working as partners over the last few years, we’ve seen that quality and customer service are the first priorities for Joshua and his team, as they are for ours. Bringing design expertise in-house allows us to fully serve our current and future customers, and furthers our mission of providing services at the intersection of publishers, content, and readers.”
“Our mission at eBook Architects remains the same,” said Joshua Tallent, President of eBook Architects. “We provide the best design services in the industry for customers seeking to offer the highest quality ebooks and reading experience to readers. Joining the Firebrand Technologies family will greatly enhance our ability to reach more publishers. I am thrilled to add our services to the comprehensive offerings currently available from Firebrand.”
According to the press release, Joshua will continue to lead the company. He is the author of Kindle Formatting: The Complete Guide.
