What reading level is The Stardroppers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At last the superintendent gave a heavy sigh.
“This is where it really starts, Cross. Not when a young genius like Robin Rainshaw goes out. When the word gets around that a mere schoolkid has done it—someone who most likely took up stardropping as a fad, because so many of her friends were doing it. I expect it to rain for forty days. And I don’t know where the Ark is, or even if there’s one being built.”
The flood image was one which Dan himself had in mind already. He’d just been mentally comp...aring his situation with that of a man who sets out to cross an apparently level street awash with rainwater, and finds the puddles up to his waist and still rising.
Compared to other assignments he’d undertaken for the Agency, this mission had seemed petty. Granting that the discovery of a means of instantaneous displacement could entrain all the consequences he’d discussed with Redvers, he hadn’t taken that aspect of the matter seriously. He’d been told to come to Britain and talk with stardropping fans, learn what he could about the rumors of researchers disappearing, but not with any expectations of confirming them—only with the intention of assessing whether the resulting social disturbance threatened to destabilize the precarious balance of world peace.
