Can you suggest me books in the style of Terry Pratchett or Douglas Adams?

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!

I’ll second Harry Harrison, and specifically recommend Bill the Galactic Hero.

Also the Stainless Steel Rat series - it’s not as slapsticky as Bill, but still comedic.

Oh yeah, I remember this one! I remember it being pretty funny, but that must have been 22 years ago, wow.
