What reading level is The Adventures of Ulysses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Hades’ kingdom, dark Tartarus, was presumed to be on the farther shore, over the edge of the visible world. But no one could be certain, for those who went there did not return.
Now it had been foretold by Circe that Ulysses would have to visit the Land of the Dead and be advised by wise ghosts before be could resume his journey and find his way back to Ithaca. So he turned his bow westward; and a strong east wind caught his white sails and sent the ship skimming toward waters no ship had sailed... before.
Night tumbled from the sky and set its blackness on the sea and would not lift. The ship sailed blindly. The men were clamped in a nameless grief. They could hardly bear the sound of their own voices but spoke to each other in whispers. The night wore on and did not give way to dawn. There were no stars, no moon. They sailed westward and waited for dawn, but no crack of light appeared in the sky. The darkness would not lift.
Once again Ulysses lashed himself to the tiller and stuck splinters of wood in his eye sockets to prop the weary lids.
