Star Scavenger - G J Ogden

What Star Scavenger lacks in political intrigue, it more than makes up for in its adventure content. Its sort of an Indiana Jones in a dystopian universe. A security officer is drawn into the world of the scavengers, outlaw like xeno-archeologists who fight eachother over alien artifacts they find in the hulks of crashed spaceships. When he comes into posession of a shard of an alien artifact that everyone wants. His privately contracted security force, the military, a crime syndicate, and hundreds of "wild west" xeno-archeologists who shoot first and ask questions later. On the run from everyone, he tries to discover what the alien artifact is, and how it could save the universe from a long dormant alien threat.  A very enjoyable series that reads and feels like watching a long movie trilogy, but it's over before you know it...
