10. Blood on the Stars by Jay Allan - never heard of it

8. Revelation Space by Alastair Reynolds - I have never read the series
7. Vorkosigan Saga by Lois McMaster Bujold - freaking awesome series

I would say that Foundation is *not* Space Opera.  In fact it makes some
fun of Space Opera.
 
_Triplanetary_ definitely is, but how can you be aware of Doc Smith and
leave a) the Lensman series proper & b) the Skylark series off of a
Space Opera list?
 
I would add The Exordium.

That's the first one, yes.  Romance, noble deeds, high drama, low comedy,
space battles, & pie fights.  IMHO, should have been a runaway hit, but
seems to have largely gone under the radar.
