What reading level is The Hot Swamp book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Giving him no time to recover, he made asweeping cut at Gunrig's neck, which, had it fallen, would have shornhis head from his shoulders, but the chief, instead of guarding it, suddenly stooped, and, as the sword passed whistling above him, returnedwith a thrust so fierce that it pierced right through the thick shieldopposed to it.
Here was an opportunity of which Bladud was not slow to avail himself. Although the arm which held it was slightly wounded, he gave the shielda violent and sudden tw...ist, which not only held the weapon fast butnearly wrenched it out of the chief's hand. An ordinary sword wouldhave been snapped, but Gunrig's weapon was a big bronze one that haddone service in many a fray, and its owner's hand was strong. He heldit fast, but before he could withdraw it and recover himself Bladud cuthim fair over the head. Whether it was accident or design no one couldtell, but the flat instead of the edge of his sword descended on theheadpiece, and the blow which should otherwise have cleft his adversaryto the chin only stretched him insensible on the field.
