Susannah Clarke's glorious Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell has some footnotes that exceed the typical page count of some people's short stories. Not as many puns as Pratchett, but suffers the same UI problem on Kindle.

oh, thanks for the reminder. Is that also a recommendation for the Strange & Norrel? I've been meaning to get to more of her stuff ever since I listened to Piranesi last Christmas when driving home through Europe.
I adore it. If you like fantasy and also enjoy Jane Austen (and her kind of humour) then give it a whirl.

But get it in paperback so the footnote-flipping doesn't drive you mad!
