Can anyone make some suggestions for some good newer science fiction that I may not have heard of? I don't really want hard science sci-fi, like the Kim Stanley Robinson Mars books, but something along the lines of Cherryh's Union/Alliance books (Downbelow Station, 40,000 in Gehenna, etc)..
I haven't been in an actual bookstore for probably 10 years, so I'm not up to date on newer authors.

Personally, I'd go through the Baen free library of e-books and see if there is anything you like. They are pretty heavy on military SF, but they do have other stuff as well.

This is one of the better books I've read lately...so far anyway
