Colour of Magic, The Late Great Sir Terry Pratchett.

The very first book in the Discworld series and which introduces us to Rincewind, the most cowardly hero on Discworld.

Quote
Rincewind shivered. He was not, of course, an atheist; on the Disc the gods dealt severely with atheists. On the few occasions when he had some spare change he had always made a point of dropping a few coppers into a temple coffer, somewhere, on the principle that a man needed all the friends he could get. But usually he didn't bother the Gods, and he hoped the Gods wouldn't bother him. Life was quite complicated enough.
