You can buy ebooks of CJ Cherryh's books directly from her. Right now it's only older books (Heavy Time/Hellburner, with Finity's End and Tripoint coming out later this year). Because the contracts are old enough that they didn't get e-rights! So she's going DIY at Closed Circle.

Heavy Time and Hellburner are a pair, and they're set during the Company Wars. It's all humans, all the time (Union hasn't split yet and created azi), with some people rebelling against the corporation that controls space faring. Some of the slang and language is dated (it's so 80s new wave crossed with punk it *hurts*), but it's believable enough. I forget exactly what the story is, since it's been a while since I read it. It's more on the action end than the psychological end. (wikipedia)

Finity's End is set 18 years after the end of the Company War and follows the exploits of the ship Finity's End, as they work to hunt down the last of the renegades. It begins on Pell's World, which we see in Downbelow Station. It's been a long time since I read this as well, but it's also really good. (wikipedia)

Tripoint I read, but I have no memory of it. The wikipedia summary is unfamiliar. Weird.

I think it's pretty sweet.
