LotR was my first grown-up fantasy, but The Witches of Karres was my first grown-up SF. I may have read Norton after that, but I'm not sure. Oddly enough, the only Nortons I can remember very much are Catseye and The Stars Are Ours, even though I think I read everything she ever wrote through 1970 or so.
(I also remember learning (partway through college) that she was very squicked out by the brother incest in Elizabeth Lynn's The Dancers of Arun ... . Poor woman - luckily she never discovered manga!)
