most of the books are appropriate for all ages but a couple have some mild language and content unfit for children.

mild drug content:
#8

adult books(mild sexual content, Language, Violence):
#9
#17
#18
#19

Mild Language:
#10
#24

Magic:
#5
#13
#22

These books are very mild in the content. If you are a specific parent read the book before your child. The Adult books are all westerns which could explain the violence. The sexual content is not descriptive just insinuative. Language in the adult books is very descriptive. although that isn’t a problem for most, i thought it was worth a mention for those it does bother. These are still good books that i would recommend to anyone over the age of thirteen. some of these books are part of a series. i enjoyed these books so much i intend to read the rest of the series and will not be surprised if your children will want to read them also.
