What reading level is The Captive of Kensington Palace book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Servants walked about on tiptoe, certain that this day or perhaps the next week would see the end of the reign.The master of the King’s household could be said to be the Duke of Cumberland; he had the ear of the King and indeed George seemed afraid of him. For what reason no one could be sure but in view of Cumberland’s reputation nothing, however sinister or shocking, need be ruled out.The Duke of Cumberland was the most feared man in the kingdom. Even his Duchess – herself a formidable charact...er – was somewhat in awe of him, although she was of no one else. Ernest was unlike his brothers; he was tall and thin almost to gauntness, very odd when the family’s tendency to fat was considered. He had lost an eye and the patch he sometimes wore over it made him appear almost as forbidding as he did when the gaunt socket was exposed. His face had been scarred in battle; he was quick-witted, clever, shrewd and ambitious. It was clear that he deplored the fact that he was not the King’s eldest brother; he wanted the throne, and when the Duke of Cumberland wanted something he went out to get it with no lack of enthusiasm.His marriage to Frederica of Mecklenburg-Strelitz was, oddly enough, a happy one.
