Northern Ireland Politics Resources

So I'm doing CCEA A Level Government & Politics and although there are tons of great books for further reading on the British political system, there aren't very many for AS 2 (the Northern Ireland module).

A lot of books appear to focus on the history of the conflict that gave rise to the system whereas the course focuses more on the current politics. Does anyone know of any books which outline the functioning of the assembly and provide a more current overview?

Government and Politics of Northern Ireland by Margery McMahon is good for foundation understanding but it is prescribed as a textbook at my school, while I found that The Politics of Northern Ireland by Joanne McEvoy was too concentrated on the 'Troubles'.
