Posted at 7:54AM Tuesday 05 Mar 2013

Small Demons, a startup dedicated to teasing out the real-world connections between books.

Launched in 2011, Small Demons is the product of former Yahoo VPs Tony Amidei and Valla Vakili, who currently serves as CEO. Its core is an analysis engine that picks apart ebook text for people, places, things, or mentions of other books. Instead of recommendations or user-generated content, it offers a huge library of shared details.
