Command that performs searches from external sources

Hello,

Is there a command that returns search results from external sources with certain keywords?

There is fetch-ebook-metadata but it only returns one result. I'm looking for a way to search for Kindle books using search keywords, preferably specifying an Amazon locale.

If you navigate to Get Books, you can select stores with check boxes. And it can search with keywords and show results. Is a similar thing possible with a command?
