What reading level is The Old Man of the Stars book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The buildings were hidden away as though people were ashamed of their very existence. On Elysium the scientist did not hold an honoured place in the community. Research was not frowned on, but it was not encouraged. Only those without the capacity for what the Elysians considered real living—that is, a pleasant pastoral life, making the most of immediate joys—dabbled in the sciences. Living conditions on this planet were ideal. No effort was needed. Work was something you did only to amuse yours...elf, and there were few who found scientific research amusing. When the world was so idyllic, why struggle and belabour your brain too earnestly?
    Matthew walked briskly along the path through the woods. It was a fine morning, but he did not take a great deal of pleasure in it: nearly every morning on Elysium was fine, and where was the charm in that?
    As he approached the main road that led down to the massive white building in which lay all his hopes, he noticed a young woman in the shade of the trees above the slope.
