Orbital Claims Adjuster: Adventures of a Jump Space Accountant Book 2

Moriarty, Andrew. Orbital Claims Adjuster: Adventures of a Jump Space Accountant. Trans Galactic Insurance No. 2. Amazon, 2018.
I am always a sucker for underestimated nerdish heroes. I am also attracted to books that pay any attention to the economics of interstellar civilizations. And if it is a semi-comic, adventurous space opera, it has checked all the boxes it needs to check for me. I know. No standards. Blame it on a misspent youth. This time, Jake, a poor boy from the asteroid belt and recent graduate of a corporate academy, is hired as an unlikely corporate intelligence agent. He has super spy fantasies, but reading the contracts, manuals, and invoices is the key to his character. The resulting chaos is predictable and fun. We show more wait to see what trouble a girl will get him into and out of and how he will use his accounting skills to save the day. show less

I'm starting to appreciate the late blooming of the story less. Just like the first book, this one has all the action happening after the halfway mark.

Will read the next one and decide if I want to continue the series.

Excellent

Jake is the perfect dupe with high levels of skill in everything except violence. Better than the first in some ways.

Needs some polishing. Spellcheck can’t fix incorrect words.

I will buy the next book when it comes available. Best recommendation I can make.
