What reading level is Last of the Amazons book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Its breadth at the nearest ford, the one Borges and the Scyths must flee to, is six hundred yards. Here the Amazons would fall upon their enemy. Here they would exact their vengeance. The sequence of events went like this: Two hours before dawn the corpse of the child Aella was taken down from its scaffold and burned. The bones were painted with ochre and swathed in the wolf-skin pallet that had bound Eleuthera’s war bundle, that kit of tokens and amulets which constitutes a warrior’s holiest an...d most potent possession, and laid out upon a stand of chalk elevated calf-high above the plain. Fifty-seven such biers had been erected, one for the ashes of each maid, as best as such could be determined. Atop each packet an axe of battle had been laid. Around the ring, horses and riders formed up, painted death colors. One Amazon stood at the head of each pyre, enacting the office of priestess. All affect had been drained from the corps by the nightlong riot, replaced by such resolution as transcended hunger and exhaustion.
