What reading level is A Pirate of the Caribbees book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The night closed down as dark as a wolf's mouth--so dark, indeed, that, standing at the taffrail, I could only barely, and with the utmostdifficulty, trace the position of the main rigging against the intenseblackness of the sky. As for the _Dolores_, we lost sight of heraltogether, and could only determine her position by the dim, uncertainhaze of light that faintly streamed above her high bulwarks from theskylight of her saloon, or by the momentary gleam of a lantern passingalong her decks an...d blinking intermittently through her open ports. This intense darkness lasted only about half an hour, however, whensheet-lightning began to flicker softly low down upon the westernhorizon, causing the image of the ship--now some two miles astern ofus--to stand out for an instant like a cunningly wrought model inluminous bronze against the ebony blackness of the sky behind her.
With the setting-in of the lightning the last faint breathing of thewind died away altogether, leaving us and the Spaniard to box thecompass in the midst of a glassy calm, the sweltering heat of which wasbut partially relieved by the flapping of our big mainsail as theschooner heaved languidly upon the low swell that came creeping downupon us from the north-east.
