Anyone know any good books with similar humor to Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy? (self.bookrecs)

I finished that series a few weeks ago and I still crave that kind of humor

^ This is a good list. I'll add Christopher Moore's Lamb or A Dirty Job and the comment that imo the Rivers of London series starts a bit skeevy with how women are written, but the author shakes it out by book 2 or 3, and it's got a great voice actor for the audio.

Yeah - Lamb and A Dirty Job were both pretty good, and I liked Practical Demonkeeping too.

I also thought after I posted that that I should've mentioned Tom Sharpe's Wilt.
