Three. Crystal Singer, Killashandra, Crystal Line. I think the
publication dates were something like 1981, 1985 or so, 1992.

I liked the stuff with the crystal itself. All the interpersonal stuff
holds little interest for me now, though, so I haven't been going back
to them. (Pern has more complicated politics *shown* to the reader,
which makes for more interesting reading.)
You want more romance/adventure, a little less SF, try _Restoree_ by
McCaffrey. If you're not interested in those, then skip it. :)
