Has anyone checked out the book series?

Some of you may already know this, but Kuuchuu Buranko is actually based off of a book series by Hideo Okuda. There are three books in the series: In the Pool, Kuuchuu Buranko, and, according to Wikipedia, the last one is called Chōchō Senkyo.
Sadly, only one of books has been published in English - In the Pool.

I actually bought In the Pool about a year ago from Amazon and I really enjoyed it. It didn't have the anime's quirky art style and Irabu didn't change forms at all, but it was still an interesting read. And I still found Irabu to be an amusing character.
The episodes involving the man with the long-lasting erection, the boy addicted to his cellphone, and the man with OCD that constantly felt like checking his house were included in In the Pool. There were other chapters involving characters that weren't included in the anime.

So, has anyone else read In the Pool, and quite possibly the others if you understand Japanese? I would really like to read the others, but I'm not really skilled in Japanese at all. u_u;; Maybe they'll translate them into English someday?
