Any recommendations for a fantasy book/series that also has a little bit of humour?

Mistborn 2nd generation Wayne is pretty funny
@Shaun I think Wayne might be my favorite character ever.
Right he’s definitely one of sandersons best characters
@Shaun yeah toss up between him and Lopez in storm lights.
lightsong was a funny character
@Zebron don’t remember that character. Which book.
I just started reading Mistborn: the final empire but I am finding it hard to get into so far
war breaker
@Richard readings shadows of self at the moment and Wayne is always a good laugh.
Kings of the wyld and bloody rose
Another Fine Myth.
prime example – early on the main character meets a troll, big green and muscular chap. Later he runs into the trolls sister and finds out that female trolls, though still green, are very voluptuous and callled … trollops.
In later books we found out the smartest character in the group was the one who could only say the word Gleep. After 12 books I thought that was hysterical.
@James me too!
Terry Pratchette – satire, humor of his Discworld. Ilona Andrews – Kate Daniels series, sarcastic humor in Urban Fantasy.
@Nancy love kate daniels! Was so sad the series ended.
Yes, Kate won’t be the main character anymore, but still expect her to pop up from time to time as they write about Julie & Erra. I like all of Ilona Andrew’s books & am enjoying Sweep of the Blade they’ve posted on their webpage. Go ripper cushions!
Kingkiller isn’t finished yet, but I laughed a lot reading them
Ketty jay by Chris wooding
Debra dunbar or helen harper
The Discworld series by Terry Pratchett.
Stormlight Archive, Wit is geniusly funny
He needed way more book time!! Especially since he seems to be a pretty relevant character
@Sadie there’s another book or maybe 2 coming (can’t remember what I read about how many) so I’m willing to bet he has a bigger role to come.
Holy cow I just looked it up and there 10 volumes planned!
Good Omens by Pratchett&Gaiman. Also the Magicians trilogy by Lev Grossman for a bit of darker humor.
Try The Missing Shield series by Linda L Thomsen. Very good to get your teeth into.
Do you like comic books?
Sebastan de castell – traitors blade
Brent Weeks – the way of shadows series
Ben aaronavitch – Rivers of London
All books that had some good humour running through them though it wasn’t the main focus
Michael j Sullivan ryiria series.
Urban Fantasy- Shayne Silvers Nate Temple Series
Brandon Sanderson Mistborn era 2 or Reckoners series!!
Mistborn two literally had me LMAO and some parts seriously. Wayne’s sense of humor was the best.
Lies of Locke Lamora
Agreed. Some of their humor is funny especially the exchanges between Jean and Lieutenant Del in Red Seas under Red Skies.
piers Anthony’s Xanth series. Alan Dean Foster’s Spell singer series. Robert Asprin Myth series. All funny.
Peter David’s Knight Life and One Knight Only, about King Arthur in modern day NYC.
Quinn Loftis has a few series that have quite a bit of humor in them.
David Eddings ‘The Belgariad’ series is chock full of humorous bits ?
Elemental paladins series is hilarious!
It’s a great series I’ve re read it twice x
Just looked into this series… I am definitely putting it on my TBR list! I’ve been looking for some quick fun reads.
@Katelyn you won’t be disappointed!!
The Dresden Files.
Penny Lane, Paranormal Investigator series.
Wow lots of good suggestions here guys thanks! 🙂
The magicians.
Bewitched And Bewildered series
https://www.amazon.com/Park-Ranger-Tom-Kiesche/dp/1541243919
Read some of the reviews…
See if it’s your kind of thing.
I went through a humor fantasy stage. If you need anymore lol I know a bunch of them.
Dresden files
Magicians, discworld series
Orconomics
Henry Wood- the journey of true magic
The King of the Trees is really good. It’s similar to Narnia. Not very well known at all, the author is a local in my state and even most here never heard of it. But it’s a legit series
Glad I came across this. I’ve been looking for some fun reads. 🙂
Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser
Joe Abercrombie-First Law and Scott Lynch-Gentleman Bastards….not sure if those have been mentioned
Nightrunner series, lynn flewelling
Good Omens By: Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett, NPCs By: Drew Hayes, Morningwood: Everybody Loves Large Chests By: Neven Lliev
The Hike By: Drew MaGary
Not sure if Off To Be A Wizard By: Scott Myer is more of Sci-fi or both Sci-fi and fantasy but that whole series is funny.
Magicians trilogy for sure, as others have said.. and Sandman Slim…
