Interesting book - I'm tempted. Just wanted to add: I distinctly remember a pack of male riders gathering together in preparation for a green dragon's rising and two male riders traveling together irresponsibly (given the dragon's imminent mating state) in the early Pern books. Perhaps McCaffery wasn't comfortable with it, but the implications were clear. It certainly seemed less emphasized in the later books, which were *very* hetero.
