Or as I've recently come to calling it, GNU + Terry Pratchett

Tanith Lee. British writer of the same time and mindset. The first book listed "Night's Master" is set in the time when the world was still flat. A mighty demon prince spends the daylight hours in his underworld kingdom, and spends his nights tormenting and/or seducing humans.

Try Service Model by Adrian Tchaikovsky. It's a wonderful story and has an underlying sense of humor in the way that Pratchett's books did.
