What reading level is The Avengers of Carrig book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Gus Langenschmidt watched with satisfaction, during the days that followed, how that ancient precept was being proved all over again in Carrig.
Once having allowed Ambrus to put into circulation the original story that there was to be no king-hunt, Belfeor had made certain that even those who most dearly desired to see him return to conformity with the obligations of a regent, scoffed at the parody of a hunt that was being organized this year. It was clear that the usurper was acting under dures...s, not from a proper sense of his duty toward the gods, and consequently the most ignorant and docile of the peasants who had massed in the city for the festival decided that he was no longer the lawful lord of Carrig, but a tyrant and blasphemer to be defied at all costs. The city-folk, of course, had had two full years to reach the same conclusion, and in every home, every tavern, every inn, the commonest toast was always to Belfeor’s downfall.
Late arrivals wanting to place their usual wagers on the contenders in the king-hunt found there were no betting-tables set up; over the doors of the houses and shops there were symbols of all the clans except the clan of the invaders, who had long ago forgotten the totem Pargetty advised them to adopt; bolder spirits dipped their festival garlands in black dye and hung them out in tatters, stark sign of the city-wide mourning … and not merely mourning, but grumbling that grew louder and louder with each day that passed.
