Space Opera
I don't think that anyone has mentioned one of the greatest Space Opera sequences of the golden age: namely the "Hub" sequence of James H. Schmitz. It comprises:
Trigger and Friends
TNT: Telzey & Trigger
Telzey Amberdon
Agent of Vega
You won't find weak women in these books!
He also wrote the fab Witches of Karres--which is not fantasy. Despite the title it is solid Space Opera!

Another great SO series I enjoyed is The Chanur series by C J Cherryh.

I have these in hard copy but they may well be available in e-book format.
