What we do
Established in 2005, we represent bestselling and prizewinning authors of commercial and literary fiction and non-fiction, for adults and children. Our clients include leading novelists, academics, and journalists as well as major companies and brands.
We work with a superb foreign rights agency who handle translation rights throughout the world, and with dedicated book-to-film agents who look after media rights for our authors’ work.
LBA has a fantastic track record in developing successful and enduring careers for both first-time and established authors. We take pride in getting the best deals for our clients and championing their talent at every stage.
We are actively seeking new clients. To approach us, please see our submissions page. We look forward to hearing from you.
PLEASE NOTE: Our agents or team will only ever email you via an official @lbabooks.com address, and we would never ask for upfront payment for any services. Please verify the email address and display names before replying and clicking any links. Beware of fake websites and social media profiles pretending to be our agents or clients. If something doesn’t feel right, please don’t hesitate to reach out to info@lbabooks.com to confirm.
