I read my first sf in the seventh grade -- we all ordered paperbacks, and I ordered "Costigan's Needle" for me, and a book on teen-age etiquette to please my mother. From "Needle" I went to Wolheim's (sp?) "Green Man From Mars," Heinlein's "Secret of the Martian Moons," and the Lucky Starr series (remember "Lucky Starr and the Oceans of Venus?). Then I went through my Andre Norton phase. Her early stuff was fantastic. How about "Starman's Son," "Starborn," and "Star Gate?" For old time's sake, I reread Star Gate a few weeks ago. Even at my advanced age (I was in the seventh grade in 1957), I still get a kick now then reading some of those old "young adult" sf novels. Mike Lynch BTL Short Hills
