Set four centuries in the future, salvager Captain Camden D. Hunter and his crew find the richest shipwreck ever lost in space: the mining vessel Cape Hatteras and the fabulous wealth it contains.
Lost 200 years before under mysterious and unknown circumstances, the Cape Hatteras is the most famous shipwreck in history. If anyone finds out that Cam's found it, he'll have every claim jumper in the solar system wanting a cut.
But that’s the least of his worries, though he doesn't know it. The Cape Hatteras was once a government ship and they want it back. Unbeknownst to Cam and his crew, within that ship lies a dark secret that could threaten Earth, the solar system, and even the whole of the universe itself.
I feel like reading The Salvagers was a nice way to get back into the hang of reading; I've been a fan of JMG for some time now and knew that his books would give me some nice hard sci-fi goodness. At times I felt like the dialogue was a bit stiff, but the plot more than makes up for it. All in all, pretty enjoyable, I could certainly recommend.
