I'm a huge Terry Pratchett fan. All the disc world novels and I even read the stuff he wrote for young adults.
My favorite is the trilogy about Tiffany Aching, about a young witch in the making. He is funny, clever and gives you characters you really adore. and don't even get me started on the Nac Mac Feegle.
Terry makes fun and light of fantasy like Douglas Adams did with Sci fi.
p.s. I haven't read '50 shades'. I know many people who have with mixed reviews. So its on the list but not high
As a fellow Pratchett fan…favourites have to be the witches followed very closely by the Watch, could I suggest another English author you may enjoy Andrea?
Robert Rankin. Similar to Pratchett but perhaps with a more steampunk/Victorian flavour.
The first book of his I discovered, I picked up on a train from Exeter to Manchester, it had been abandoned on a seat, and I loved it.
It was “Raiders Of The Lost Car Park”. It's the second in the Cornelius Murphy trilogy, so I jumped in at the wrong place, but still enjoyed it.
Rankin has written many books, some in series, some stand alone. I haven't read everything, maybe 15 so far, but I've enjoyed each one.
Give him a try.
