What reading level is The Secret Vanguard book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
‘Poems,’ he cried. ‘The poems of a Moray loon.’ He held the book higher in a trembling hand. ‘A fiddler’s philosophy. One shilling.’ In less than a minute the pursuing truck would be in the station, and the words were fantastic and remote enough. Nevertheless, Sheila stopped as if conjured: it was like a sudden immemorial spell. Employed to halt and coax amid a bustle of trains and travellers, the voice was vibrant with the skill of the minstrel in arresting the mere violent tumult of the hour: ...Barons, écoutez-moi, et cessez vos querelles… The spell lasted a second only, but it drove her to speech. ‘I’m hunted by men coming down the line,’ she said rapidly. ‘They mustn’t get me. How big is the village – will there be help there?’ There was an instant’s silence. The blind fiddler’s head and hands moved irresolutely. It was as if he were feeling his way through some impalpable barrier. He spoke in a new voice. ‘Is it the redcoats?’ he asked. ‘Is it the redcoats that are out and after you, lassie?’ ‘It’s Germans, fiddler – German spies.’ His head moved again.
