Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://library.forgemesh.io/life-on-other-planets-fictionWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a curated, pre-filtered shelf of public-domain science fiction focused specifically on the theme of life on other planets, rather than running a general full-text search. It is ideal when you want a ranked, browsable list rather than passage-level search results, and when you need drill-down routes to access full texts. Prefer it over the full-text search sibling when topic discovery and ranked curation matter more than keyword matching.
Side effects
- Requesting more than 50 books returns only the maximum of 50
- Invalid limit parameter type may cause a validation error
- Network or payment failure (x402) may block access
- If the corpus index is unavailable, no results are returned
