What reading level is August book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
While his father worked at the water treatment plant beyond the swamplands Tristan ran errands for Father Carmichael, delivering the priest’s potions to the sick and dying. They paid in coins worn smooth with worry, and Tristan grew up with the smell of death never far from his nose. His father said the workers’ quarter had been that way since the war.
Tristan danced down pock-marked streets, proud of the speed with which he could negotiate them. The roads in this part of the City of God weren’t... worth fixing; there was only the occasional delivery truck to worry about and the procession of floats on the holy days. What little fuel there was, gained in secret negotiations with the outside world, was controlled by the Holy Council, and its drivers had no business to attend to here. It was like living in another century now, Tristan’s father said, and the words split his tongue, as if they were coated in acid. He thought he kept his pain hidden from the boy, but Tristan’s nature was watchful from the start.
