If you haven't read them yet, the Discworld series by Terry Pratchett fills a similar fantasy space, but with an excellent dose of British humor mixed in. The Colour of Magic and The Light Fantastic are often recommended as the primary starting point, but there's a handful of parallel storylines with their own "starting points". Going Postal is one of my favorites.
