    try some terry pratchett, great for reading on planes, as you can put them down, pick them up very easily when You're sleepy.

    I'm reading the Dark Tower seris now. I know I should have read it ages ago, but it's good stuff. Also, try Kings new book. The Cell.

    When you are in the airport lobby, just pick up a Pratchett book, if you are not laughing after a couple of pages then you know that it's not for you. ALthough it's a fantasy land, its more observational comedy related to the real world. My favourites are Soul Music, Small Gods and Thief of time.

    Another vote for Terry Pratchett.
    Specifically Good Omens co-authored with Neil Gaiman.
