Have you read Christopher Moore? He mixes fantasy/scifi and comedy and is a pretty good story-teller and writer. Similar to Chuck Palahniuk in some regards to writing style.

HoL is in my top 5 books I've ever read. Absolutely enthralling experience reading that book for the first time. Danielewski's Only Revolutions is a pretty good read as well.

Agreed. I'll offer up two recommendations well worth it for HoL fans:

The Life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman
The Manuscripts Found at Saragossa

I'm assuming it's better than the movie? (Which I did enjoy actually).

If you like HP Lovecraft check out The Terror by Dan Simmons. Has similar motifs.

Noted.
