What reading level is Checkmate book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Conducted by the glittering red and blue tabards of the Lyon Court, the procession of the nine Scottish Commissioners for the Queen of Scots’ wedding wound into Paris some three days afterwards, impeccably escorted by François de Sevigny, brother to one of the Commissioners, and by Claude d’Aumale, brother to the great Duke of Guise himself.
All the way from Dieppe, the names of de Guise and of Sevigny had filled the air, through the speeches and the noise of the hackbuts and cannon. Lymond had ...sent for the Tapkana, his specially built canopied sledges, and the first part of their journey was spent Russian-style running over the flat snowy chalkfields, with pennants streaming and bells ringing in the crisp air.
He was not averse, his brother noticed, to reminding the populace who he was. Even d’Aumale’s jewelled hats and furred cloaks drew fewer eyes than the Voevoda Bolshoia in his black fox fur hat, balancing on his light sleigh, reins in hand. Along with everything else, Richard Crawford concluded, Lymond had come to enjoy adulation.
