Agatha Christie is always a good choice.

If you're interested in pure humor, the "Evil Dead" movies, or World War II: The Alphabet of Manliness by Maddox, If Chins Could Kill by Bruce Campbell, and My Tank is Fight! by Zack Parsons. Those are 3 recent reads of mine that were incredibly satisfying.


check out 'I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell' by Tucker Max. very entertaining

Start a lunch time fight club at the office.



Try the "Prey" series by John Sandford. Minneapoulis homicide cops solving crimes and battling evildoers. Added bonus that it's the same group of cops in each book, so you get to know them and shouldn't need to refer back to the character introduction like you mentioned.
I like "The Empress File"! Time to find another book.
