Kelley asked this question about The Priory of the Orange Tree (The Roots of Chaos, #1):
Is this age appropriate for a 12 year old fantasy reader?

There is a little bit of sex, but it is nothing explicit (I've actually seen YA titles with worse). As far as gore and death go, it does discuss war, but so does almost every fantasy book. Definitely depends on the maturity level of the person.(less)
