No there are two comic collections as well, the first was "The Wyrmwood Deceit" and the second "The Peeress and the Price".
The two comics feature rather inconsequential side-stories for the main characters after their respective games. The Wyrmwood Deceit features Corvo and The Peeress and the Price Emily.
There are additionally three novels, "The Corroded Man", "The Return of Daud" and "The Veiled Terror". The first is a sort of coming of age story for Emily as they investigate Zhukov. The second is the story of Daud before "Dishonored: Death of the Outsider" and acts as a prequel to the events of that game. And the last book is an epilogue to the entire storyline, and looks at the consequences of the outcome of the final game. It's a little bit contrived, as the expanded universe material tends to be with Dishonored.
The above would be a suitable reading order too, albeit the order between the second comic and second novel doesn't really matter as they aren't at all connected.
Found this on Amazon so looks like The Corroded Man is the novel and the other is the graphic novel. And yeah the novel cover says it is an official sequel so maybe it is set between the first game and the second one? Comes out in September before Dishonored 2. First of a trilogy too.

This is what I believe he is referring to, it's a decent read. It's not stellar, but a nice and readable foray into Dunwall and a few other places in the Isles.
Of course you can, though I'd advise against using this sort of comparison often or where it's unneeded. Referring to unknowns might prove confusing, or even offputting. Case in point: The Corroded Man and Rat Nothing, which both reference lore terms (places, things, creatures) in awkward ways that interrupt the flow of story and information.
>What was more bothersome to me was that the author immediately started throwing world-specific terms at me that made absolutely no sense at all, despite the world-building. If the reader is paying very close attention, you could figure out that the "Lartchthiss and Lartchthissa of Catchawen" were nobles of some kind, or that a "button-eyed shoutbear" is some kind of animal, but having all these terms listed one after another is unnecessarily tiring and could discourage readers used to more modern, fast-paced fiction. (Review of Rat Nothing)
>Which brings me to the hamfisted lore in this book. I've read better fanfic that makes use of the scenery and locations and lore itself in a more organic way than shoved down your throat every three sentences - and in a form that makes SENSE instead of awkward sentences: "its roof a jumbled collection of tiled surfaces assembled with all of the precision of a child who'd had too much Serkonan honey cake" - one, lose the adjective jumbled - and two, are Serkonan honey cakes supposed to induce such delirium you can't have more than one? And the comparison itself is jarring, like the author was trying to find clever ways of infusing lore where it wasn't needed - or wanted for that matter. (Amazon review of Corroded Man)
Amazon, for less than 8 bucks
Synopsis without spoilers: Mysterious man comes back from Tyvia's prison and needs help from the whalers to perform his nefarious schemes, meanwhile Emily is trying to stealth and recon on her own, unknowingly under the watchful eye of dear ol' dad.
