What reading level is Wonders in the Sky book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

the eighteenth century is characterized by intense interest for the rational study of nature, systematic investigation of “meteors,” the rise of an international community of scientists and “natural philosophers,” experiments with electricity, Benjamin Franklin’s demonstrations of the nature of lightning, the wide development of navigation, the worldwide recognition and imitation of the Royal Society, and early attempts to fly culminating in the first manned balloons.
The search for new planets
...gave rise to numerous observations of unknown bodies by competent astronomers, both professionals and amateurs, eagerly reported in considerable detail in the pages of the new scientific journals and publications dedicated to an enlightened elite.
The eighteenth century belonged to Newton and Lavoisier, to the triumph of Reason. Unlike modern “rationalists,” however, intellectuals who considered themselves enlightened were dedicated to careful observation of nature and did not recoil before its more mysterious aspects.
