Just to roll up a couple of replies into one post:

I enjoyed Naomi Novik's Temeraire series, but the quality dropped off after the first few, as it became a bit of a travelogue and diverged more widely from actual history, so I haven't actually read the last few. They were always lightweight and kind of fun.

I guess we're talking Safehold for Weber? Not a series I've read, since it sounds like the bits I didn't like about the Honor Harrington books writ large. I did enjoy the HH books (not that different to Temeraire, when you get down to it, both owing a big debt to CS Forester), but again they went downhill after a while and I'm several behind.

I have the first-in-series by Beaulieu and Tahir, but haven't got around to reading them yet. Nice to hear positive word about them.
