The Tar-aiym Krang (Adventures of Pip & Flinx Book 2) by Alan Dean Foster -- $0.99 (#2 of 14)
At Amazon USA

I've read the entire series, and enjoyed it. I would class the series as light fun reading. Trying to replace all my DTBs, but the books don't go on sale often,

Moth was a beautiful planet, the only one with wings -- two great golden clouds suspended in space around it.

Here was a wide-open world for any venture a man might scheme. The planet attracted unwary travelers, hardened space-sailors, and merchant buccaneers -- a teeming, constantly shifting horde that provided a comfortable income for certain quick-witted fellows like Flinx and his pet flying snake Pip. With his odd talents, the pickings were easy enough so that Flinx did not have to be dishonest ... most of the time.

In fact, it hardly seemed dishonest at all to steal a starmap from a dead body that didn't really need it anymore. But Flinx wasn't quite smart enough. He should have wondered why the body was dead in the first place...
