Genre: Humour in a Fantasy setting.
The entire Discworld series of book are excellent. Terry Pratchett's books mix humor, good stories and life lessons to make them a fun read. The Discworld novels are a large body of work with 36 published novels and 1 more planned for October 2009. All the novels can be read standalone. However there are a few miniseries and while there is no overarching story line, its fun to read them in order and see the characters grow.
My personal favourite in terms of characters comes from the 'Watch series' followed closely by the 'Witches series', either of these would make a very good entry point into the series. There are also 4 young adult novels, but don't let that put you off, they are good reads too.
Here are the books with links to Amazon. The series are listed in the order that you should read them.
