Those two are my favorite authors, but sadly I've read all their work and neither are making any more.

I absolutely love that style of writing and I'd love to know if there's more like them!

Craig Shaw Gardner's Ebenezum/ Wuntvor trilogies are fantasy comedy.

Philip Jose Farmer (as Kilgore Trout) wrote Venus on the Half Shell as a sci fi comedy.

(On the topic of Kilgore Trout - that pseudonym is actually a character from several of Kurt Vonnegut's books - also mentioned in this thread.)

Yahtzee Croshaw (the Zero Punction guy) has also written several fantasy and sci fi comedy books - Jacques McKeown is one series.

Glen Cook, more famous for the Black Company series - also writes a fantasy comedy series - Garrett P.I..

Steven Erikson, more famous for the Malazan books - also writes a sci-fi comedy series - Wilful Child.
