I was introduced to sci fi in the 60s and early 70s by the Big 3. I've reread many of those early books and yes they are very dated. But I've also read Edgar Rice Burroughs Lin Carter (can you call him sci fi) and Jules Verne, also even more dated. I loved Dune and have read all the new ones too, not up to par with the old man, but enjoyed them nonetheless. You can't read a book forgetting its times.
