I know he wrote half of his works in French first, but since he translated them himself I don't know which version to choose. Has anybody here tried both ?

I have, he sometimes adds something in the way he translates, some sentences get better in english, others don't... I'd just go with the original by default, but if you're not fluent in French you don't have to worry about it.

Murphy's original IS english
