Largely that's because the kids who are interested in fantasy are already finding it pretty well on their own, while the ones who are interested in SF (or could be) are at a bit of a loss.
They don't have to be easy reading. They should be age appropriate to kids thirteen and under. Largely that's a question of the point of the violence (i.e. is it completely gratuitous?) and how graphic the depiction is. "Mutilated in horrible ways" works better for this age group than "he took his knife and [insert explicit details]" I hope that helps. And thank you. --JKB _______________________________________________ basfa mailing list [email protected] http://vesta.wallis.com/mailman/listinfo/basfa
