Spacehounds of IPC by Edward E. Smith - First SF book I ever read - have been a convert ever since.

Great Sci Fi adventure!

First SF book I ever read - have been a convert ever since.
This book contains a number of elements that are unrealistic (e.g. it features real live Martians, and the author's take on womankind is, to put it lightly, less than politically correct - though I'm told that that was simply how American society viewed women at the time). If you can look past things like that, this book is *brilliant* ! And it's a prime example of what SF was like when it all began. That also means that, compared to current SF, the story is kind of dated - SF has gone a long way since way back then. But this book really opened my eyes in regard to the fun of discovering what an author thinks the universe would be like if ____ (just fill in the blank however you like) was true, possible, and/or had turned out differently.
