A Goodreads user asked this question about The Signature of All Things:
Suggested age range? I am currently reading this book and I love it. I am also constantly thinking my fourth grade son will love it too (he loves all books, classics, Shakespeare, operas, etc).

The entire book is way too long and the story line too varied to hold the interest of a child for it's entirety. I found the adventures of Henry, with some on-the-fly omissions, was lively and descriptive, but slow enough to make a good bedtime story for 4 littles ages preteen - 6 years. We were on vacation and I couldn't get any other stories to load on the Kindle before the natives became restless! (less)
