My #BookReview of #RiteOfPassage by #AlexeiPanshin:

https://multcolib.bibliocommons.com/v2/comment/2233637172

One of the cornerstones of 1950's SF was the Heinlein Juvenile, a series of a dozen young adult science fiction coming-of-age novels written by Robert Heinlein. Authors who grew up on them have attempted to reproduce them, since. None but Panshin have gotten it exactly right. /1
