Ben Aaronovitch's books also have funny parts, though the funny is more the "voice" of the POV character than the situations. The first one is "Rivers Of London" in England and "Midnight Riot" in the US.
"A Civil Campaign" and "Captain Vorkosigan's Alliance" by Lois McMaster Bujold have some very funny parts, though if you don't like Bujold's work enough to read the whole series, you're not going to enjoy them as much, I think.

I found Pratchett to be okay--I think I'd have loved them when I was younger. The humor is good, it's the several POV that gets me. I love to be immersed with a character or two and I read the Witch ones (wyrd sisters? or wyrd witches?) and I was so frustrated when the POV kept moving.
I've also read Midnight Riot. I'm not sure I'd classify those as humor although the main is quite perplexed at the goings on/supernatural.
