What reading level is The Claw of the Conciliator book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When it was complete, I said, “I’m not certain I understand why the student at once assumed his son was dead when he saw the black sails. The ship the ogre sent had black sails, but it came only once a year, and had already come.”
“I know,” Jonas said. His voice held a flatness I had not heard before.
“Do you mean you know the answers to those questions?”
He did not reply, and for a time we sat in silence, I with the brown book (so insistently evocative of Thecla and the evenings we ...had shared) still held open by a forefinger, he with his back to the cold wall of the prison room, and his hands, one of metal, one of flesh, lying to either side as though he had forgotten them.
At last a small voice ventured to say, “That must be a really old story.” It was the little girl who had lifted the ceiling tile for me.
I was so concerned for Jonas that for a moment I was angry at her for interrupting us; but Jonas muttered, “Yes, it is a very old story, and the hero had told the king, his father, that if he failed he would return to Athens with black sails.”
