Terry Pratchett has a weird mind, to come up with the stuff he thinks of you would have to have a weird mind, but that doesn't mean it's not funny on the contrary it's hilarious. "The Colour of Magic" is the first of the Discworld series and a perfect introduction to the series. Meet Rincewind, a failed Wizard, Twoflower, a tourist, and the Luggage, a traveler's dream and a bagsnatcher's worst nightmare. A novel of invariable delight.
