What reading level is Far Flies the Eagle book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The sight of Prince George of Oldenburg, pimpled and undersized, pricked Alexander’s conscience when he thought that he had forced his sister into marriage with him. Conscience had long since ceased to be a word to the Czar; it troubled him violently over many things, and not least for having condemned his sister to the life she hated most, pampered inactivity. The fact that he knew her to be evil and unscrupulous did not excuse his own harshness, and he tried to make amends by lavishing money a...nd favour on her. She had conspired against him, she had no more moral sense than an animal, and her debauches at Tver were already notorious; he knew all this, but her faults faded to insignificance beside the enormity of his own crime.
He had murdered his own father; lain in bed listening while a crowd of drunken traitors battered him to death, and then pretended to be sorry, to be innocent, so that his confederates and not himself should bear the blame. When he thought of that he thanked God for two mercies granted him; he had resisted the temptation to put Catherine Pavlovna to death, and he had been allowed the opportunity of repairing his terrible wrong by freeing the world from the tyranny of Napoleon.
