Hello,

One day I woke up and decided to build an e-shelf of every fiction book I possess, to see what's missing from the series and universes I read, but found that all the existing apps provide poor visibility into fictional worlds.

Of course there are plenty of fan wikis, Discord servers and subreddits, but there is no single place where fictional worlds collide.

So, together with a friend, I decided to build yet another all-in-one reading tracker: one that knows the right way into the universes and series you read, and what you're missing.

A proper collector's module (hello, Discogs and others) tied to what you read, native mobile apps, and more features are planned.

Today Loreful contains more than 400k works, 28k series and almost 500 fictional universes. And the corpus keeps growing.

The most popular universes have reading orders inside: where to start and what to read next.

Universes can be browsed on a star map, where neighbouring worlds read alike, so a world you love leads you to the next one.

You can import your Goodreads or StoryGraph library.

If something is missing, it's still possible to create your own private book for tracking, and you can reread a book multiple times, with its own rating for each read.

It's free, with no ads. Yet at some point we may add a subscription mode (not mandatory!) to support the infra behind it.

ISFDB is our backbone, with Wikidata, Open Library and our editorial layer on top. Huge thanks to the people who maintain these.

For now we may be missing books, authors and descriptions, but we keep expanding. If you see a gap in the data, please let us know and we'll figure out how to add it.

Happy to hear your feedback!
