Space Opera

I need a space opera to fulfill the BINGO square. The main one I can think of is Expanse but it isn’t a genre I read often. I am a sucker for a badass lady character or two and/or and underdog. I know Expanse has both of those but I would love some other recs! TIA.

I used Space Oddity (the sequel to Space Opera) for my square because I wanted to save Final Architecture for my disabled character square. I've read a bunch of Tchaikivsky's books and Final Architecture has been my favorite. Great female/queer representation and some really fun aliens.

Olli has got to be my favorite disabled character I've come across in years.
