Page xi: | "Debate still prevails on what the first science fiction (sf) book really was." |
The author mentions a number of possibilities but fails to list the work by Lucian of Samosata. |

This must be a hitherto unknown luminary of SF criticism. I wonder if Robert Silverberg has heard of him... |
