What reading level is The Mercenaries book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There were no fields, no roads, no railways and, it seemed, no towns. There would be no ‘flying by Bradshaw’, and it was decided that Ira, as the only capable navigator among them, should lead in the Avro with Sammy as his passenger.As they pulled on their helmets, to Ira’s disgust, Fagan produced a flat bottle which was already half-empty.‘Half past drinking-up time,’ he shouted. ‘Irish whiskey, no less. To keep us warm.’With his incredible genius for turning even a simple everyday problem into... a catastrophe, he had managed to disappear the night before when Ira had been eager to get everyone to bed for an early start, and they had had to hire a taxi and go round all the night clubs and parties before they found him at the home of one of the officials of the British Consulate, riotously noisy and just on the point of disappearing upstairs with the official’s wife, while the official lay behind the settee in the lounge with a glass and a bottle still in his fists. A furious argument had followed and Ira had had to threaten to fetch Ellie before they had managed to drag him away, deflated and enraged and bitterly resentful of having to do what he was told.He gave his mad laugh and handed the flask to Ellie and, as his eyes flickered over his little party, Ira decided that he’d have looked to the future in inland China with horror if he’d been sharing it with only the Fagans.They were sweating in their heavy clothing but by the time they’d climbed to four thousand feet it was cool and, immediately, with the Avro in the lead and the two faster single-seaters weaving throttled back on either side, Ira turned and headed north.
