What reading level is The Queen And the Courtesan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Marie felt a glow of pride that it had been she who had brought about this blessing upon the French people. Beside her in the open litter sat Madame de Montglât, her son’s nurse, who lifted the child in her arms for the cheering crowds to see, some even falling to their knees in homage to the infant prince.
The only cloud over these events arose when Henry had his son’s horoscope read. Superstition was always rife about court, with many courtiers having more than a passing interest in magic and ...sorcery. Catherine de Medici herself had been a well-known exponent of the dark arts. Now some murmured of an earthquake having taken place on the night of the Dauphin’s birth. Did this mean that the nation would be plunged into yet more wars and catastrophes?
Seeking reassurance Henry commanded Monsieur de la Rivière, who professed a knowledge in the science of astrology, to draw up an accurate horoscope for little Louis. But as the weeks passed without a response, Henry grew impatient and again summoned the astrologer to his presence, demanding to know what was the cause of this delay.
