What reading level is Marbeck And the King-in-Waiting book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The food was good: broth, fish brought fresh from the coast, and loin of pork. During the meal there was little conversation, but as soon as he had finished eating Drax turned his attention to Marbeck.
‘You’ve pledged allegiance, Duggan,’ he said, eyeing him from under his heavy brows. ‘And you may now share our confidence. For you will be called upon sooner than you think.’ The others – Feaver and Follett – were silent. Marbeck inclined his head.
‘Our total strength is two hundred,’ Drax went o...n. ‘Mostly pikemen, with forty harquebusiers – eight ranks of five. They’re capable of maintaining continuous fire, rank by rank. Not that we expect to engage in a pitched battle – but I think you know that already.’ He paused, then: ‘Indeed, perhaps you should tell us what it is you think we’re doing here.’ Inwardly Marbeck tensed. All three men were watching him: it was a further test. Unhurriedly he wiped his mouth with a napkin, then leaned forward.
‘I believe you’re preparing to welcome a certain noblewoman to our shores,’ he said, speaking low.
