I think there is a LOT of sci-fi that doesn't try to sugarcoat monarchy. I'm looking at my book shelf and don't even see any that do.

Yeah, I was trying to think of a "monarchy is good actually" scifi novel, and can't, offhand (it's somewhat common with sci-fi TV shows/movies, however).

Maybe the Dune sequels, if you're willing to really, _really_ stretch the definition of 'good'.
