If you're a Douglas Adams fan you'll love Robert Kroese.  He's very funny, only unlike Adams he doesn't wander off into confusing side tangents, nor does he wallow in just wackiness to hope for laughs.  His humor is genuine and constant.  The first book in the series is short story prequel and it's free: Mercury Swings.  The whole series is basically about a fallen angel.  Not like a demon, just an angel who stopped going to angel meetings, moved to Berkeley and became a hippy.  They are comedies, NOT religious books, so don't read if you're easily offended.Kroese also throws in enough science to keep my geeky side happy without boring me (like my teachers used to).  Kroese is what you'd get if Douglas Adams had a kid with Michael Crichton, and that kid did not get the Ritalin the school counselor advised.  I look forward to his next book!
