The closest you can get imho is to just create an entry in your menu of "FictionDB", put the url below and manually type in the author/title on the search page when you use it. Well unless someone else finds a way for this website

- I'd already tried a similar link but yours takes me to the
advanced search, which is even better.
Thanks for all your help, especially that bit on how to set up the search urls - that will definitely be handy for later so I'm saving the instructions
