If you like punny fantasy, you might try Steven Brust. He creates some interesting characters, like Vlad Taltos, the assassin-hero of Jhereg and some if his other
novels, and interesting plots. Brust is Hungarian-American. His stories often contain Gypsy elements. Brust is a talented musician and a generally colorful character. You can read about
Brust and his books here.
