Pretty sure this is the only book I’ve read from 1994. I enjoyed it quite a bit at the time but it’s one of those books that I held in lower esteem after letting it marinate in the old noggin for a while.
The only other ‘94 book I could even find that I would want to read someday is Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil
