Re: Can You Remember Your First Science Fiction Novel?

My first SF novel was John Wyndham's The Chrysalids, initially heard as a BBC radio 4 dramatisation, then borrowed from the library and avidly read. That must have been about 1969 (?) at the tender age of 10.

I'd read fantasy before, notable Andre Norton, but never SF. My second SF book was a short story collection called Through a Glass Clearly by a certain Isaac Asimov... I've never looked back since!
