What reading level is Threads of Silk book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He thought it ironic that he should end up in the very Amboise castle courtyard where two thousand Huguenots were murdered by axmen at the behest of the Queen Mother and the Guises nearly two years ago. It was here that he had vowed to strike against Spain’s wars of inquisition, and it was here that he would answer for sinking the Duc of Alva’s galleon and several smaller vessels bringing soldiers and weapons to reinforce their massacre of Protestants in Holland.
He looked toward the royal stand... with fringed canopy, the Queen Mother in her usual black gown with severe coif to the right of King Francis, and the Cardinal de Lorraine and Duc de Guise just behind and to the left of him. Francis looked unusually tired and pale, his young shoulders slumping. Reinette Mary was not present. Beside the Duc de Guise stood the infamous Duc of Alva, Spain’s chief war general for the inquisition and spokesman for King Philip of Spain. He was here to protest France’s failure in the eyes of Rome and Spain to rid the land of its Huguenots.
