What publishing companies will help me?

[Jake]

These are not the best times for conventional publishers, it's always been difficult for a complete unknown to get their attention, more so now. Self publishing is a possibility, getting a Kindle title onto Amazon is not too tough.

There's one one woman writing some fantasy stuff along the lines of harry potter who is making a nice living self publishing her work. These days with print on demand services that can print any number of books as needed and digital downloads you can get your work out there without a publisher grabbing the lion's share of the revenues. Look into publishing for Amazon Kindle, Amazon is your publisher in that case. I believe you have to pay about $200 to get an ISBN# for a physical book that could be sold on Amazon, one advantage, you might show up in certain other indexes, like Google books.
