I will admit a fondness from most of John Ringo's work - I do not agree with him politically, but the man has a gift for making you turn pages.
One exception. Ghost. The follow-up was better; but Ghost is likely the greasiest book I have read in the last couple of years. Greasier than wrapping yourself in bacon and running a marathon. It is one long, sustained, military male fantasy run amok. No. It is does not run amok - it sprints amok. With a JATO.
I do enjoy his Fallen World (There will be dragons) series a great deal.
Honour Harrington - get thee the early books - ignore thee the later ones. The author let the technology run ahead of him to the point that it eclipses the tactics that made the earlier books interesting.
Miles - My lovely wife recently introduced me to the hyperactive, hyper-intelligent dwarf. Miles rules, and the series is worth checking out.
