I'm not keen on self-promotion, but I did just publish a general-audience book on Epicurus (Living for Pleasure: an Epicurean guide to life, Oxford University Press). I'm definitely not aiming to launch a movement, but I hope to help fill the vacuum you mention, as well as give Epicurus a fair, even-handed hearing.

Yes, it was a clear and useful exposition.
I linked to it above in the original piece, along with Catherine Wilson's How to Be an Epicurean. I don't know of any other modern Epicurean works.
