“My deep gratitude to you and your excellent team. You did more than I expected, especially with all the editing and rewriting plus all the extra research. I am extremely happy having chosen your company for the translation. Thank you again for your amazing work!”

— Enrique Dodero, Author

Ingravidez by Enrique Dodero — sci-fi novel translated and acculturated from Spanish to English as Crisis of Gravity
