Have you considered the 'Expanse' series by James S.A. Corey? While it starts in our solar system, it absolutely evolves into an interstellar conflict with the discovery of the ring gates. The strategy shifts from terrestrial politics and ship-to-ship combat in the Belt to managing the geopolitical shock of a thousand new worlds. Key strategic dilemmas involve controlling the choke points of the rings, first contact with a mysterious alien presence, and preventing total war between Earth, Mars, and the Belt. It's a gritty, realistic look at how human strategic thinking strains and breaks when presented with an incomprehensible new frontier.

If you want interstellar war and strategy with a side of biting satire and existential horror, the 'Warhammer 40,000' book series, specifically the 'Horus Heresy', is a behemoth. It's less about individual battles and more about the grand strategic betrayal that fractures a galactic empire. The strategy involves demigod primarchs, legions of super-soldiers, and cosmic entities manipulating events. The scale is incomprehensibly large, and the 'strategy' often boils down to centuries-long campaigns and sacrifices measured in entire planets. It's over-the-top, grimdark, and totally committed to its own insane logic.

The 'Lost Fleet' series by Jack Campbell is exactly what you're looking for. It's practically a masterclass in relativistic space warfare where communication lag and fleet coordination are central to every battle. The way Campbell handles fleet formations, tactical withdrawals, and the sheer logistics of commanding ships across light-hours is mind-bending. It feels less like space magic and more like a brutal chess game played at a fraction of lightspeed. You really get the sense of a weary admiral trying to outthink an opponent with the same tools, where a single mistake means the destruction of your entire civilization's hope.
It's a dense read because of the tactics, but if you love the granular details of fleet maneuvers, there's nothing quite like it.
For a mix of hard sci-fi and corporate dystopia, 'The Moon is a Harsh Mistress' is essential. It's lunar independence, not interstellar, but Heinlein's rigorous thought about the economics, ecology, and ballistics of a lunar colony is a masterclass in building a believable off-world society from first principles.
Don't sleep on indie publishing for this niche. I stumbled upon 'The Last Watch' by J.S. Dewes, which follows the crew of a ship guarding the edge of a collapsing universe. The political tension comes from them being the forgotten, undersupplied bastion of a sprawling empire that's largely abandoned them. It's a great mix of 'who do we owe loyalty to?' and 'how do we govern ourselves when the central authority fails?' with a solid military sci-fi wrapper.
Vernor Vinge’s 'A Fire Upon the Deep' has moments of this, though it’s set in a universe full of conflict. The human protagonists’ interactions with the dog-like Tines are a fascinating study in building trust and communication with a group-mind species. The humans are refugees, not conquerors, and their survival depends on forging a mutually beneficial alliance. They have to slowly, carefully explain human concepts and technology, while learning the incredibly complex social politics of the Tines. It’s diplomacy under desperate circumstances, born of necessity but growing into genuine cooperation.
