I've read most of his stuff, but shied away from Hard Boiled Wonderland when I saw that it was translated by Alfred Birnbaum; maybe I'll have to give it a look.
I agree that 1Q84 is not his best. Murakami often reworks old short stories into his novels. It's really nice to see the progression in a writer's work when you read a lot of their books; it's like listening to band's discography and seeing the changes over time.
