If you liked those, then I can heartily recommend The Gonzo Papers Anthology (cheapest at The Book Depository by 1p!) which includes The Great Shark Hunt, Generation of Swine and Songs of the Doomed. I bought it for the last two books as I had already bought and read The Great Shark Hunt which is one of his finest books.

It is a fairly hefty tome with over 1200 pages so not the easiest thing for bedtime reading!
