Not new books, but Hector Bywater's alternative history 'The Great Pacific War' is an interesting read.
Even more interesting is his 'Sea-Power in the Pacific' (written before the Naval disarmament treaties). This gives a good overview of the support structure and planning of the IJN/USN. with the time.
