There's a series about goblins by Jim Hines that I never read, and there's also a webcomic about goblins (called Goblins I'm pretty sure) that I've been saving for when I can't afford books anymore and desperately need something new and free to read.
I am with you on the whole good/bad races thing. I can reluctantly accept villains who are "evil to the core" some of the time, but when a whole race is evil I get downright cranky. In my personal LotR fanon, after the Fourth Age of Men comes the Fifth Age of Orcs.
