This novel was the first detective novel to feature an openly Autistic detective as a protagonist and was the first work of fiction to portray Asperger Syndrome as a "different way of thinking", with some advantages over the neurotypical way of thinking -- and therefore, not necessarily a disability. A German-language edition was published in 2013 by Von Loeper Literaturverlag, of Karlsruhe, Germany. 〔 His other works include ''Trueman Bradley – The Next Great Detective'', ''Instruction Manual for the 21st Century Samurai'', ''Why Not-World'' and the Forgotten Lore series.〔Kulkarni, Nitish(20 October 2015).
