Is there anything I should be aware of before letting my children read this?

No sex, drugs, or rock and roll, though there is some drinking of alcohol. It’s certainly not written for kids, but except for the artist using a human skeleton in his work, discussions of pre-Christian rituals and conflict in Israel/Palestine, which I guess might not be ok with some people, there’s probably nothing “inappropriate” about it for kids. Reading the reviews and quotes here would give a pretty clear sense of the style and content. I can’t imagine a kid enjoying it, but hopefully yours did if they read it :)(less)
