Fableration Introduces Algorithm-Free Platform to Help Publishers Breathe Life into Backlists
At the heart of the platform is a simple principle: readers deserve to discover books on their own terms—not based on what's trending, sponsored, or stacked high in stores. And that principle is turning the traditional marketing playbook upside down.
Readers have been groomed to look for genres or follow the breadcrumbs laid down by likening a new release to a book that has sold well. But stores have limited space, and nobody has the time to scroll through hundreds of pages of online search results to find their next read. As a consequence, promotion is king. No matter how good a book is or how groundbreaking it might be, the fact is it can only be read if readers are able to find it. 'And this is the problem,' says Simon Harding, CEO of Fableration. 'The market is not designed to help readers find books—it's designed for them to trip over the ones someone has paid to place in front of their feet.'
Readers want to search beyond genre. They want to find stories that resonate: a novel set in 1940s Stockholm; a voice that's sharp and poetic—a character who reminds them of someone they've known, or someone they want to become.
Finally, they can.
Fableration is leading a publishing renaissance. It uses emerging technologies to help readers discover books on their own terms. Whatever the reader wants to find, the platform's independent AI curator, Phi-Bee, will return the closest matches. And she'll do it honestly and without any kind of algorithmic bias; there's no promotion allowed on the platform.
'For a publisher, this changes everything,' says Harding. 'The backlist is publishing's most undervalued asset. These books have already been brought to market; the costs have been sunk. What these titles need now isn't marketing, it's visibility.'
The way Fableration sees it, publishers have nothing to lose and everything to gain by loading their backlist titles onto the platform.
'We don't ask for exclusivity and we don't sit on royalties for months,' Harding continues. 'In fact, we can distribute them to both publisher and author almost immediately. And because Fableration is not-for-profit and open-source, we also won't shrink the margins to line our own pockets.'
Fableration is not another retail channel. It's a response to everything that's broken. A place where books are matched to readers based on what matters—not what sells.
Every publisher has a vault of backlists. What Fableration does is open it. Whether it's a title that never got the marketing push it deserved, or one that served its time on the frontlist and faded too quickly, Fableration can give it a second wind.

The Night the Andrea Doria Sank
Good morning. It's Friday. Today we'll look at a 1956 shipwreck that is being remembered this weekend. We'll also get details on Columbia University's $200 million settlement with the Trump administration. It was a night to remember, but not the Titanic night. On July 25, 1956, the unthinkable happened to another unsinkable ship bound for New York — a disaster that has become little more than a pop-culture footnote. 'Seinfeld' fans remember how that sitcom mined it for laughs — but only after Cosmo Kramer, played by Michael Richards, clued in the audience: 'The Andrea Doria collided with the Stockholm in dense fog 12 miles off the coast of Nantucket.' 'That I have a problem with,' said Pierrete Domenica Simpson, who was a passenger on the Italian liner Andrea Doria and has spent years seeking to vindicate the captain and crew of the doomed vessel. It wasn't the Andrea Doria that rammed the Stockholm, she said. It was the Stockholm, a Swedish ship, that smashed into the Andrea Doria. 'Broadsided us,' said Simpson, who was 9 years old then. 'Full speed on the starboard side.' Simpson will take part in a survivors-only gathering at the Italian American Museum in Manhattan on Saturday. There will be a screening of the documentary film 'Andrea Doria: Are the Passengers Saved?' — based on one of her books — and the director, Luca Guardabascio, will be on hand. The group will also preview 'Andrea Doria: The Final Voyage,' an exhibition of artifacts that the museum has assembled. It includes a 140-pound brass bell from the ship and items from the vast collection of artifacts retrieved by the diver John Moyer, who first explored the wreck in the 1980s. The exhibition will open to the public next Friday. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
