Book your Manuscript Review directly below. There is no need to agree your project with Steve first. If you are unsure whether this service is right for you, contact Steve before booking.
Your booking in two steps: supply your book brief and manuscript, then check your service and pay. If Casover already has your complete brief and correct manuscript, go straight to payment.
£395 before any agreed discount. Your review is delivered within 10 working days of receiving payment and your complete, accessible manuscript. If you do not request an early start and a 14-day cancellation period applies, work starts after that period and the 10-working-day delivery period runs from then, provided payment and the manuscript are in place. Steve confirms the delivery date.
An editorial assessment of your complete manuscript, of any length, with strengths to retain, findings supported by examples, and prioritised revision actions. It considers structure and progression, reader experience and consistency, and fiction craft or non-fiction clarity and authority as relevant. You receive an executive snapshot, manuscript overview and final editorial assessment with recommended next steps.
Your reports are delivered through private Notion pages, with downloadable PDF copies available within those pages. Access is available for 90 days after final delivery; download your PDF copies to keep. AI reads and analyses the manuscript; Steve directs the work, assesses the findings and gives the reports a final check. This is not a cover-to-cover human read or a separate verification of every finding against the original passage.
The review does not include rewriting, copy-editing, proofreading, full fact-checking, specialist legal review, permissions work, cover/interior design, publication-file production or researched Amazon marketing material. You choose and implement revisions.
Book a £395 Full Manuscript Review during October or November 2026 and receive one AI-assisted proofread of the same book after revision, included in the price. Submit the complete files within six months of receiving your review. The £145 Revised Manuscript Review is separate.
Upload your complete manuscript as a Word (.docx) file. If you write in Google Docs, choose File → Download → Microsoft Word (.docx), then upload that file. Do not supply a PDF or a shared manuscript link. Use the same email address here and at checkout. After submitting the brief, continue to payment below. If you have already paid, do not pay again.
Check the service and final total before paying. If you have any questions, contact steve@casover.com.
Before starting work, Steve will check your manuscript and brief to make sure this service can provide a useful review within its advertised scope. If it isn’t the right fit, we’ll explain why and refund your payment in full.
If a file is missing, unreadable or inaccessible, we’ll contact you to resolve that first. We won’t change the service or make any additional charge without your agreement. Your statutory rights are unaffected.
Steve checks your payment, manuscript and brief, confirms that the review is suitable, contacts you if anything is missing, and confirms your delivery date. Your payment receipt confirms payment; it does not mean that work has started.
