5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, but choose the U.S. version for less cost
This price is only due to the rarity of an import version, with a different title, possibly out of print now. See the other reviews for the U.S. name equivalent :)

1.0 out of 5 stars Mistake? Book? What?
Is this a real book? What is the reviewer talking about? The sequel to Mote is the Gripping Hand. Is this Mote In Gods Eye under a different name or Gripping Hand under a different name? Given where Mote ended and GH begins there isn't room for a book in between.

GOT IT

2.0 out of 5 stars No, This actually is "Gripping Hand" under a disquise., December 26, 2008
This review is from: Moat Around Murcheson's Eye (Paperback)
Do not spend your money on this. No. This, actually, is the British edition of "Gripping Hand" under a disquise or nom de plume or some such alternate name. I gave "G.H." a two and will give this the same two. As a sequel to "Mote" it is disappointing. If you must have it, buy "Gripping Hand".

3.0 out of 5 stars ripoff, April 11, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Moat Around Murcheson's Eye (Paperback)
It would be nice if you would state the other name for this book which is the Gripping Hand. Maybe then people wouldn't buy this book twice!

I'm giving the book five stars in order to override Glen's review above. My actual rating is closer to four.
