What reading level is Parthena's Promise book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He could hear the drunken banter from within, the raucous laughter and shouts of men celebrating their freedom with the women, but to him it was a cacophony of peace. These noises were far removed from the sounds of cannon shot ripping through screaming bodies, or the cries of death. He rested his eyes a moment, trying to blank out the visions he had seen; visions that haunted him. Jerome tried to breathe in the familiar country smells of this North Yorkshire market town, to blank out the memory... of the burning smoke that seemed to cling to his nostrils, or worse, the smell of blood and death. His senses were being slowly cleansed of the hatred that he had heard pouring out of men’s mouths for the past five lonely years; it evaporated like his breath in the chilly air.
What was it the recruiting sergeant told the young men whom he enlisted? “A battlefield was where camaraderie and honour was at its highest.” No, he thought, it was a deafening, mind-blowing place, where a soul could be destroyed, and they soon found out the true reality as the bodies fell at their sides.
