How we scored them

The Shelf Score weighs fit for the reader, contents and edition, value, and the listed reading age or level. Three of the four state a reading age. How we pick explains the weights.

Book Shelf Score Fit /35 Contents /25 Value /25 Age/level /10
Aru Shah and the End of Time 9.7 32 22 21 7
The Titan’s Curse Graphic Novel 9.7 32 21 21 7
Mother Bruce Book 1 9.7 30 21 21 7
Mandalorian Piano Songbook 9.5 28 20 21 0

Scores run from 9.2 to 9.8: each book’s point total is placed on that range, so more points always means a higher score. Reading age or level counts on a list where at least one listing gives one, and a book whose listing gives none then scores zero on it. Where no listing gives one, the score is taken over the other 85 points. Books carry no warranty, so warranty is not scored.

How to choose the best thriller series Disney Plus fans read

Match the reader’s age

Mother Bruce is a board book for ages 2 to 5, Aru Shah states ages 9 to 12 with a grade 3 to 7 level, and The Titan’s Curse graphic novel states ages 10 to 14 with a grade 5 to 9 level. The Mandalorian songbook states no reading age; it is for intermediate piano players. A stated age range is the safest guide when buying for kids. See our best thriller series Disney list for more Disney picks.

Graphic novel or chapter book

The Titan’s Curse here is the graphic novel edition at 128 pages, a fast visual read of the Percy Jackson story. Aru Shah is a 384-page chapter book and the start of a five-book series. For reluctant readers, the graphic novel is the easier sell; for series readers, Aru Shah book 1 opens a longer run.
