I adore all Pratchett in a way that cannot really be rendered in text, eventhose Discworld books that i like less (i have to be in a specific frame of mind for early Rincewind and the wizards to not grate on me), but the Watch/Vimes books are definitely favourites. If you liked Night Watch, i'm going to hazard a bet on you also liking the next two Watch books.
...i will admit to being biased in favour of Snuff not only because it's Pratchett (and Vimes) meets Austen (so i was that weird child in school that actually adored the term we spent on Regency literature) but also because i got to hear the man himself read from it.
In a similar vein, have you heard about Dodger? It's the newest allegedly-for-teenagers Pratchett and it's all Dickensian. With actual Dickens. (seriously, when i figured out what was going on and who certain people were i actually squeed IRL. My brother specifically came into the living room to judge me for that)
