Hm, I went to amazon.co.uk, and they do list _Dragonseye_.
But they also list _Red Star Rising_, which could also be the same novel
under a different title. Except they *don't* list _Chronicles of Pern:
First Fall_, so that's a more likely candidate for that one. Been
awhile since I read either, and between the babies inside me and the
toddler in the house, I'm somewhat scatterbrained. :)
Debbi, if you're following this thread, McCaffrey has written some
non-SF stuff, some of it about women who ride horses. Try _Ring of
Fear_ or _The Lady_, unless you absolutely can't stand romances. :)
