Epictetus might be fun:
http://www.letsreadgreek.com/epictetus/EnchiridionGreekText.htm
He's a stoic philosopher from the first century who wrote in "literary
koine."

It looks like some of the "Acts and Paul and Thecla" are available online:
http://patrologia.narod.ru/apocryph/novum/a_paul.htm
Beware, apparently the fonts don't work quite right in firefox.

Also, I believe the apostolic fathers can be found online.  Here's one such
site:  http://www.ccel.org/l/lake/fathers/toc.htm.

Finally, the Patrologia Graeca is a rich source of all sorts of Christian
Greek literature.  You can many PDFs here:
http://khazarzar.skeptik.net/pgm/PG_Migne/.  Melito of Sardis might be a
nice one to try: he's from the second century.

Happy reading!
