Buying me books counts as tithing!

One of my supervisors, Prof. David Parker, has just brought out 'An Introduction to the New Testament Manuscripts and Their Texts' (ISBN-10: 0521719895
ISBN-13: 978-0521719896 Cambridge University Press 2008) which largely supercedes Bruce Metzger's 'The Text of the New Testament', but I'm guessing that this is not quite literary enough....?
Josh,
Maybe give this a try: (http://www.google.com/products/catalog?hl=en&q=best+book+for+literary+criticism+of+the+NT&cid=15862675734707911958#ps-sellers)

Josh: on literary criticism, you might want to look at I don't know of any "definitive" work. But David deSilva's Introduction to the New Testament gives this bibliography on the subject:
Beardslee, William. A. Literary Criticism of the New Testament. Philadelphia: Fortress, 1969.
Booth, William C. The Rhetoric of Fiction. 2nd ed. Chicago: University of Chicago, 1983.
Culpepper, R. Alan. Anatomy of the Fourth Gospel: A Study in Literary Design. Philadelphia: Fortress, 1983.
Kingsbury, Jack D. Matthew as Story. 2nd ed. Philadelphia: Fortress, 1988.
Kurz, William S. Reading Luke-Acts: Dynamics of Biblical Narrative. Louisville, Ky.: Westminster John Knox, 1993.
Moore, Stephen D. Literary Criticism and the Gospels: The Theoretical Challenge. New Haven, Conn.: Yale University Press, 1989.
O’Day, Gail R. Revelation in the Fourth Gospel: Narrative Mode and Theological Claim. Philadelphia: Fortress, 1986.
Powell, Mark Allan. What Is Narrative Criticism? Minneapolis: Fortress, 1990.
Rhoads, David, and Donald Michie. Mark as Story: An Introduction to the Narrative of a Gospel. Philadelphia: Fortress, 1982.
Staley, John L. The Print’s First Kiss: A Rhetorical Investigation of the Implied Reader in the Fourth Gospel. SBLDS 82. Atlanta: Scholars Press, 1988.
Stibbe, M. W. G. John as Storyteller: Narrative Criticism and the Fourth Gospel. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1992.
I've enjoyed, personally, the "What is..." series from Fortress press for introductions, though I haven't looked at this particular one by Powell.
You may want to try Stephen Moore`s Mark and method which has a lot re Literary Criticism and Culpepper on John is useful.
I really enjoyed The Text of the New Testament: Its Transmission, Corruption, and Restoration (4th Edition), by Bruce Metzger. The 4th edition has been updated by Bart Ehrman. I know that Ehrman likes to over hype differences in the NT manuscripts, but his book Misquoting Jesus is what got me interested in NT TC in the first place.
