They're beefy books, but have you checked out any of Neal Stephenson's stuff, particularly the Baroque Cycle? I dare you to not get a hoot out of Jack Shaftoe.
For more recent stuff, I think you might enjoy Richard K. Morgan's "Thirteen". For that matter, his Takeshi Kovacs books (Altered Carbon, Broken Angels and Woken Furies) are pretty good also, with the first and last being the strongest.
BTW, your comments about "Pushing Ice" prompted me to finally pick it up - thanks, that was a terrific read. I have a few quibbles with it but still well worth the time.
