Mike Shepherd: the Kris Longknife books
If you like Sassinak, Elizabeth Moon's Serrano/Suiza books, and David Weber's Honor Harrington books you'll probably like Mike Shepherd's Kris Longknife books. I'm calling them "light military SF," because there's little to no technical stuff and while it's in a military setting and there are military actions it's more part of the setting than the story. I just finished the latest and I really, really enjoyed all of them.
Website He's got sample chapters on his webpage, Kris Longknife: Mutineer is the first.

Re: Mike Shepherd: the Kris Longknife books
