Cool idea, but from my tests it seems like the LLM needs more grounding since it misses lots of characters. Maybe a list of the actual characters in the story?

I had the same problem with https://timelines.0xmmo.co where I had to ground it in Wikipedia articles.

I love the timeline! Are we limited to search for some keywords? I tried some countries but couldn’t find them in the results!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Pat Rothfuss is still working on it, last I heard.

This is one of those sentences whose meaning subtly changes depending on which word you put the emphasis on :-)

I choose to put the emphasis on 'is'

Hi, I created the app. I appreciate all of your comments. I know some may find the result of a book not concise or accurate. One issue was that I couldn't afford the price of a better LM service. At first, I tried a free tier of Gemini, but its results were disappointing. Later, I switched to DeepSeek and got better results.

It's impressive you're able to have decent results from free tiers and open source models.
