I suppose it was about time!

In early 1983 I was on a Cobol Programming course. One of the other participants was, like me, a Science Fiction fan and  recommended the Starchild Trilogy by Frederik Pohl and Jack Williamson published in the 60s.There was a copy in the Welwyn Book Store (long closed I imagine) which I purchased. For some reason it never got to the top of my reading pile and eventually it got given to a charity shop (my flat had limited storage).

Anyway some time ago I rebought it along with another trilogy by the same two authors. I read that and enjoyed it but the Starchild Trilogy remained unread.....

Well until tonight when I started the first book. Its only taken 42 years!
