GNU Terry Pratchett
This book is one of the Discworld series that can stand on its own and readers don't need to know about the Discworld going into the novel.
This wonderfully clever book opens with Moist von Lipwig- a conman who has enjoyed some success in the past- in prison and sentenced to death. And so he is hanged.
A short while later he wakes up in the offices of the Patrician being offered a second chance. The catch? He has to become a civil servant and find some way to resurrect the Postal System- that hasn't delivered a letter in years- and most people feel has been rendered obsolete by the new, high tech "clacks" system that is now solely owned by the thoroughly morally bankrupt Reacher Gilt, who is himself an accomplished conman.
Because this is a Terry Pratchett book multitudes of hi-jinks ensue. There are some great, fantastically witty lines that will make you want to reread the book occasionally. Throw in a love/hate story with a woman whose family he played a large part in destroying. Eventually it all boils down to a battle of conman vs conman and high tech vs old fashioned man (and Golem) power Moist even feels his version of conscientious at times by the end of the novel, just in time to get his new assignment from the Patrician. He is going to take over the bank and make it solvent OR ELSE. The adventure continues in Making Money.
