Lieutenant Lord Thomas Kinago sets out from the Imperium homeworld for the Autocracy of the Uctu, a galactic region with a geckolike overlord known, eponymously, as the Autocrat. Thomas is ostensibly on a pleasure cruise with his cousin Jil to enjoy the pleasures of the Gecko culture. (Jil is herself fleeing a spot of trouble in the Central Worlds after she rebuffed the unwanted amorous interest of a local crime boss)
In fact, Thomas is on a mission for the mysterious Mr. Frank, the head of the secret service, to discover how prohibited goods, including a small fighter ship, are being smuggled into the Autocracy. His crew’s overt assignment is to find out why legitimate shippers are being detained at checkpoints, sometimes for months, without explanation. As usual, Thomas’s reputation for sudden enthusiasm and goodhearted mayhem precede him. It is all his trusted aid Parsons can do to keep his leader on course.
Thomas’s newest interest is superstitions, and he is driving everyone to distraction by telling fortunes, and even inventing a new method or two. Yet while the Autocrat, a new and fairly young Uctu female, finds Thomas a curious diplomat, she also rather likes him—much to Parsons’s relief. It seems Thomas needs free passage within the Uctu home system before he can investigate the illegal contraband trade. What’s more, the smuggling ring is quite determined to cancel Thomas’s visit before he can cancel them. As usual, it’s up to Parsons to find a way to lead his hapless master to victory—or at least keep him from getting himself killed by a very determined enemy.

Really fun series. I recently found this author and have only tackled this series and Strong Arm Tactics so far. This series is fun and you really care about the characters. I am wondering if I am going to continue to love the series though; The main character is intelligent but kind of clueless at times and if he doesn't grow up its gonna get old. He falls into his successes at times and that's fine if you are developing the character but that can't be the same storyline 3-4 books into a series.Product details

Fortunes of the Imperium View From the Imperium Series Book 2 eBook Jody Lynn Nye Reviews
This was an enjoyable book to read. There was enough of a plot, with a lot of dry humor and action to satisfy most readers. I look forward to the next book in the series.
Enjoyed this author's dry sense of humor and wit. It was an interesting read, but the end didn't seem to be quite as enjoyable as the rest of the book.
jody lynn nye is an awesome author .... she draws you into the story ... as reading her works basically allow you to dream into her worlds ... HAZZAH!
3 3/4 stars. Entitlement has settled and better plot development made the second book in the series a little more enjoyable than the first. Interesting to see how Thomas's current hobby comes into play solving plot twists.
A light hearted read, but amusing and well placed with a final crescendo of silly action. Well worth the time
I always enjoyed Weber and Ringo's "March Upcountry" trilogy. This is in the same vein but with much less blood. Both make me laugh and keep me turning pages. The writing is superb and the story is fun and entertaining with enough mystery to keep you turning the pages. A fun read. Don't tell me if the science is accurate. Remember, it's science FICTION.
This continues the story of Thomas. He continues to develop as rather responsible aristocrat, with a bit of the imp in him when needed. The book is just plain fun to read. Some good laughs, and a few "oh, my!" moments of concern. I am eagerly waiting the next installment. I am also awating Thomas' next "enthusiasm" and how it manages to upset the Navy while solving a crisis.
Really fun series. I recently found this author and have only tackled this series and Strong Arm Tactics so far. This series is fun and you really care about the characters. I am wondering if I am going to continue to love the series though; The main character is intelligent but kind of clueless at times and if he doesn't grow up its gonna get old.
