I'm happy you liked this book, too. I really liked the representation of a character with reading problems. And the dynamic of the two! I need book two now :)
I have this on hold at the library! I've been wanting to read Foundryside for several years but haven't found the time, but as soon as I found out he was releasing a mystery I immediately decided I had to read it first. 😆 Another comp (as someone who hasn't read TC yet obviously) might be the Mossa & Pleiti ongoing series by Malka Older - it's sapphic Sherlockian sci-fi mystery set on the rings of Jupiter
