Tony:
I'm not qualified to judge Ruben Swanson's books, although several people
have praised them highly to me. I own all of them, and have really been
enjoying them. I would think they would be of great value to anyone
interested in textual criticism. I support Clay's suggestion to get
them. But if you can afford it, get NA27 as well.
