What reading level is The Sword of Damascus book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There was a time when I’d have sucked in the residue at the bottom of the cup. This I’d have crunched and sucked until there was no more of the nutty goodness to extract. I was now more concerned about abrasions to my already sore gums. I emptied the grounds into a silver bowl set before us for that purpose, and replaced the cup on the small, polished table. Khadija raised the pot and looked a question at me. I smiled and watched as she poured again.
What did the woman want? I’d have my answer, ...soon enough – though not before every other subject had been exhausted. This was a diplomatic meeting. There was nothing here of the perfunctory courtesies, followed by hard bargaining, I’d known with her husband. This observed all the usual courtesy of the East. We used up the whole pot of kava on long accounts of our mutual relatives by marriage. It seemed I was connected, through Karim, to all the leading families who’d stood around the Saracen Prophet, and who now were the background government of all that the caliphs had taken.
