What reading level is A Soldier of the Legion book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The thief started back, expecting a blow, stumbled against the nearest bed, roused Four Eyes, and in a second thewhole room was in an uproar.
The full moon lit the intruder's face as if with a white ray from apolice lantern. Pelle and a dozen others recognized the man from theEleventh, who could have but one midnight errand in the sleeping-room ofthe Tenth: the errand of a thief. Like wolves they leaped on him, snapping and growling, swearing the strange oaths of the Legion. Bayonets flashed in... the moonlight; blood spouted red, for a soldier ofthe Legion may "decorate" himself with a comrade's belt, or bit ofequipment, if another has annexed his: that is legitimate, even _chic_;but money or food he must not steal if he would live. It is the Legion'slaw.
All was over inside two minutes. The guard, hearing shouts, rushed inand stoically bore away a limp, bloodstained bundle to the hospital. Nobody blamed the men. Nobody pitied the bundle--except Max, whose firstexperience it was of the Legion's swift justice.
