I'm new here, so hello everyone
My situation is that I've suddenly found, rather later in the day (I'm 49 years old) that I really like Science Fiction. This has happened through watching a lot of Sci-Fi on TV - Stargate, Babylon5, Farscape and especially the new Battlestar Galactica.
So, anyway, I'd really like to have a go at reading a sci-fi book. I'm a goodreader, but I've never read a sci-fi novel in my life, and just don't know where to start. I also don't have huge amounts of reading time, so I just need a good place to start, and see where that leads.
What would be the ONE Science-Fiction novel that I should read to get started. I realise there are plenty of threads that ask similar questions but everyone dives in with huge great long lists of books, and its overwhelming.
Tell me one book to read![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
