GoSpoken inks Editions Harlequin mobile book deal

Titles will be made available via BlackBerry App World, Nokia Ovi and Play-Now Arena

Mobcast Services, parent company of digital book service GoSpoken.com, and the book publisher Editions Harlequin (the Mills & Boon equivalent in France) have announced a partnership to distribute French language eBooks to mobile phones.

Titles from authors such as Nora Roberts will appear on GoSpoken.com and across BlackBerry App World, Nokia Ovi store and Sony Ericsson Play-Now Arena.

Gwen Delhumeau, Business Development Manager for Mobcast, said: “Following the success of our partnership with Mills & Boon in the UK we know romance novels are extremely popular on personal devices like mobile phones. It was an obvious choice to select worldwide bestselling author Nora Roberts (300 million books sold worldwide in over 20 languages) for the first French eBook of our catalogue.”
