I actually had a student suggest it as a series to add, then come back the
next day and say, "NO! WAY! don't put that in the library."  This was kind
of shocking that a JH boy would actually recant on his recommendation, so I
asked why.  He said it has quite a bit of "mature images and themes" in
it.  Then, he showed me some of it.  After seeing some of it, I would
consider it more for "mature readers."  I'd say it is more upper HS.  It is
a good series though!  Really high-interest!
