His first 2 fantasy are great, Expecting someone taller and Who's afraid of Beowulf are just as good as Pratchett in my opinion and the Mapp and Lucia continuations are good too but am not so keen on his later books, he seems to run out of original ideas; I haven't bothered with them in recent years

I've read Here Comes The Sun, Ye Gods and Grailblazers, he is a good writer in the vain of Pratchett but not as funny. Having said that Ye Gods is very funny.

Yes I have read a few and they are funny and worth reading although not up to the standard of the inimitable Terry Pratchett.
Apart from the one mentioned above I particularly enjoyed "Expecting Someone Taller", "Only Human" and "Nothing but Blue Skies".

I've read a couple, such as: You Don't Have to be Evil to Work Here, But it Helps
It's the story of a young man named Colin (?) and he is trying to save his dad's business. It's a fun book to read.
There's also Earth, Air, Fire and Custard wherein Wells seems caught in a web of evil, again in a business factory but it works out well for the forces of good.
