Example prompt: Search AudiobookBay for audiobooks of 'Dune' by Frank Herbert in English and show me what comes up — I want the title, cover, and slug so I can grab the magnet link next.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to discover audiobooks available on AudiobookBay by title, author, or keyword. It returns a list of results with slugs that can be passed to the companion /api/details endpoint to retrieve magnet download links. Prefer this over general web search when you specifically want AudiobookBay torrent listings.
