Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://library.forgemesh.io/pzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a curated, ranked list of public-domain fiction books in the PZ Library of Congress classification — particularly English-language novels. Prefer it over a full-text search endpoint when the user wants to browse or discover titles rather than search for specific passages. It is a good first step before drilling down into individual book full-text retrieval routes.
