Does anyone know the publication date for Never Send Flowers? All I can find is July 1993.

Any ideas?

My records show the US edition (which I'm pretty sure was released before the UK edition) was released on Memorial Day weekend, 1993. I bought my copy on May 29, 1993.

LOL! Zen, you sound like you keep records for the last time you went to get your car washed, too :)

As a matter of fact...according to my Quicken, my last car wash was on Jan 24th. :) I know, it's crazy and a little sad.

The US was earlier than the UK? That's strange. Any ideas why?

I'm not 100% sure of that. Back in the pre-internet days, I didn't get my English editions right away. I show I got my UK NSF in August. I'm going more by what you said--a July release (which would make sense as it use to take about a month for the Mysterious Bookshop to get me my UK copy). But here in the US I was on top of it, and I know I got my NSF on May 29.

Maybe you could ask the person who runs Gardner's website?

That's a good idea, never thought of that :) Cheers.
