A princess of Mars
ON THE ARIZONA HILLS
I am a very old man; how old I do not know. Possibly I am a hundred, possibly more; but I cannot tell because I have never aged as other men, nor do I remember any childhood. So far as I can recollect I have always been a man, a man of about thirty.
And because of this conviction I have determined to write down the story of the interesting periods of my life and of my death. I cannot explain the phenomena; I can only set down here in the words of an ordinary soldier.
I spent nearly a year prospecting in company with another Confederate officer, Captain of Richmond.

The problem
Search engines are hostile to readers.
Complex series make you ask tiny memory questions: who is this person, what faction is that, why does this place matter? The open web answers with full-series spoilers. StoryCodex narrows the answer to what your current chapter permits.
Long breaks
Return after a month and review arc summaries, recent events, and the active cast before you continue.
Huge casts
Recall aliases, roles, alliances, and appearances for characters who vanished hundreds of chapters ago.
Lore overload
Keep places, factions, items, concepts, magic terms, and mysteries organized inside the book itself.
Private reading
Your library, reading progress, summaries, and Codex entries are designed around local-first storage and processing.
How it works
A Codex that grows only as far as you have read.
The Android source backs the public promise: StoryCodex builds chapter summaries, character dossiers, world entities, relationship edges, and timeline events as incremental grounded passes.
Bring in a book
Import files or add a web novel. StoryCodex keeps each universe tied to its own Codex key, including linked volumes.
Analyze the chapter
The app grounds summaries, entity mentions, world terms, relationships, and timeline events against the text you actually reached.
Update the Codex
Profiles, aliases, world entries, graph edges, and chapter recaps grow incrementally instead of dumping a full-series wiki on you.
Recall without spoilers
When a name returns 700 chapters later, you get the context that is safe for your current reading progress.
Screenshots
Real app surfaces, framed for the web page.
These current captures already explain the library, book detail, and reader flow. The page now uses indigo framing so the outdated brown accent does not control the brand.
Library
Pick up the exact book you left open
A calm library, progress-aware continue reading, and quick import paths for EPUB, PDF, and web novels.
Book Details
Chapter control before you read
Resume, restart, tune companion settings, and manage long chapter lists without losing your place.
Reader
Readable pages with narration built in
Typography-first reading, chapter summaries, Codex entry points, and a persistent offline TTS player.
Popup
Tap a name without opening the web
Reader context sheets show a spoiler-hidden profile for the exact entity you tapped.
Codex
A living character index
Characters, appearances, and summaries stay tied to the current chapter boundary.
Graph
Relationships become visible
Character, location, and faction links are mapped so complex casts are easier to read.
Capabilities
Built for people reading worlds, not just pages.
The product is strongest when books are long, names are dense, and lore matters. These are the pieces worth showing off on the homepage.
Characters
Builds spoiler-safe profiles, aliases, appearance counts, current status, and relationship notes as chapters are processed.
World Index
Tracks places, factions, items, concepts, mysteries, and magic systems so dense worlds stay searchable.
Timeline
Stores grounded chapter events and arc summaries, making it easier to return after weeks away from a series.
Relationship Graph
Turns character, faction, and location links into a visual map you can inspect instead of digging through notes.
Neural TTS
Supports local narration engines like Piper, Kokoro, and Supertonic with reader controls always close by.
Private AI
Runs companion analysis through local-first model backends such as GGUF and LiteRT, with optional cloud keys under user control.
Who it is for
Fantasy, web novels, progression fiction, and any series that makes memory expensive.
If a book has families, guilds, ranks, regions, artifacts, or recurring mysteries, StoryCodex gives you a private reference layer that evolves with the story.
Android release
StoryCodex is live on Google Play.
