I remember reading a few books in a series called the Helmsman. Not especially recent (80s?) and military-ish, but swashbuckling.
I don't know how you feel about tie-ins, but I have fond memories of the early Star Trek Pocket Books. (By "early", I think I mean before TNG started - there was more room to play then.) The Wounded Sky, Chain of Attack, and Enterprise are 3 titles that seem be sticking in my head. Oh, and How Much For Just the Planet?, which should be on high-school reading lists. Or something.
Do you read any mags? F&SF and Asimov's both carry space operas once in a while. Asimov's is available on the Kindle; not sure about F&SF.
