Pratchett aside, can anyone give me funny fantasy authors? :)

I read a few Tom Holt books and liked them better than Pratchett.

It depends what sort of funny you're after. If you like your bog standard spoof novels, then there's Bored of the Rings and The Soddit, and I believe a third book called The Sellamillion, but don't quote me on that one.

If you don't mind reading books aimed more at children or young teens, then I'll happily recommend Steve Barlow & Steve Skidmore's Tales of the Dark Forest series and also David Lee Stone's The Illmoor Chronicles.

For a more YA market, Jim C. Hines' Princess series has gotten a few laughs from yours truly, and they're very good reads too. He's also written the Jig the Goblin series (Goblin Quest is the first book, I believe), and whilst I've not read them myself, what I do know points to them being quite humorous (not sure if they're YA or not, I think they're aimed more at younger teens).

Going to throw an oddball here and also put forward Stephen King, specifically his The Dark Tower series. Whilst they're not part of a comical series, one of Roland's ka-tet is a frequent joker, and there are some funny moments in the series, including one dead baby joke which makes me smirk to this day.

Continuing Dwagginz' parody track, there is also a series about a boy named Barry Trotter. Quite funny—as are the other parodies Dwagginz mentioned.

Probably not what you're looking for, but to me Harry Dresden is comedy gold.

Also if you don't mind a novel that can be a bit rough around the edges and contain a lot, and I mean a lot of sex jokes (the main character has only sex on his mind), Armageddon Bound by Tim Marquitz might be worth checking out. It's just a goldmine of funny lines in my opinion.

Here's an example: "Baalth smiled so wide I could count his teeth. I stopped at five. I get bored easy." There are many lines like that, and as mentioned above, many of a sexual nature since he's always horny.

Check Tom Holt

I like to relax after a heavy epic series with something light.
Christopher Moore provided some fun rides , mostly horror in a contemporary setting - in case you liked Jim Dresden books.

Another favorite is Barry Hughart with his Master Li and no. 10 Ox books based on "an Ancient China that never was". In the same vein I also liked Ernest Bramah Kai Lung stories.

I enjoyed Steven Brust Vlad Taltos series and Martin Scott / Millar Thraxas books - both dealing with private investigators in a high fantasy setting. There's also Glen Cook with his Garret P.I but I haven't started this one yet.

I have to say I find Steven Erikson's work with the Malazan series humorous. Granted it depends on what cast of characters he's focusing on like Tehol and Mael who are hilarious. But generally he finds ways to mingle it in there despite the cast currently on scene.

If you're into slightly zany, Spike Milligan-esque humour (but with modern American movie cultural references), then Robert Rankin is worth a look.

For humourous SF, Rob Grant is superb, both his three books set in his own Red Dwarf setting and his newer solo novels (Colony, Incompitence and Fat).

[Alchemist]

David Eddings always has a lot of humor.
