"Use of Weapons" by Iain M. Banks.

Edit: Overlooked the "fun" and "lighthearted" part. Let me change my answer to "Excession", same author.



I'd recommend "The Player of Games".

Not light-hearted, but definitely pretty fun in places. And a cracking story - I go back to it and dip in randomly every few months.
