I first ran into Lackey when I was 16, and I was just smack dab the PERFECT age for her/it. (Vanyel. Whaddyagonna do?)
I did miss the Pierce window, though, and I've tried reading them as an adult, and I just didn't get grabbed. (Though I'm told that her first (which is the one I tried to read) is kind of not so good.)
As for SF/fantasy series -- Anthony, McCaffrey, Marion Zimmer Bradley, CS Lewis, Tolkien, yeah, them. But generally after I was about 12. (For some reason I was skewing younger-era-me in most of my answers.)
