I would also recommend Ian Douglas' "Star Carrier" series (4 books so 
far) - fun and a good read, some nice treatments of (very) non-human 
aliens and some rather esoteric tech (ships pulling multiple 
thousands of G by projecting artificial singularities that they then 
"fall" towards) but nothing that's any worse for PSB than the 
Honorverse and/or Drake's RCN novels.
Very "US Navy In Space Saves Humanity", but then that's what a lot of 
readers want from Space Naval fiction; some elements have quite an FT 
feel to them, at least that's what I felt while reading them.....
