I see that the Prometheus Award, which is usually given for the best denunciation of right-wing libertarian by a Scottish or British writer, has a list of nominees up. Surprisingly, not only are all the authors [edit: North] American, but three of them* are actually libertarians.

Arctic Rising, Tobias Buckell (Tor)
The Unincorporated Future, Dani & Eytan Kollin (Tor)
Pirate Cinema, Cory Doctorow (Tor)
Darkship Renegades, Sarah Hoyt (Baen)
Kill Decision, Daniel Suarez (Penguin)

Hoyt and the Kollinses are libertarians; I think Suarez is too, but I can't swear to it.

Doctorow and Buckell are both in favor of civil liberties and (I think, based on written evidence) proper health care systems, so they count as socialists by the usual definition.
