Jinx on a Terran Inheritance

My first introduction to Brian Daley was through this book:
Jinx on a Terran Inheritance
"Jinx on a Terran Inheritance." It is the second book in a trilogy that is out of print these days, but you can often find a copies used.
The first book in the trilogy, was "Requiem for a Ruler of Worlds". Find that one, if you can to start. I found the first two books in the series to be very fresh and funny. The third, "Fall of the White Ship Avatar" began well, but soon wandered off the mark for my tastes.
It was from this trilogy, that I discovered the marvelous character Alacrity Fitzhugh.
Good reading if you like sci-fi. Possibly, even if you do not!
