off hand I would say mature-teen based on the tv series, which was great but contained a lot LBGTQ and "straight" relations, not sure if the book contains the same but depending on your feelings on the subject....
Personally, I don't feel that content is necessary or adds any value, may not be ideal for younger readers.
Edit: Missed the comment above. Disregard.

I found the show to be boring and not nearly as fantastical as the books, primarily due to practicality and budget I assume. For instance, imagine Aslan in Narnia. Now picture instead of a giant talking lion with moonlight constantly shining on him, it's just some dude in lion-esque makeup and facial prosthetics. There is a direct correlation to this specific example but I won't spoil it for you because it's pretty funny. This happens for literally every fantasy creature in the series, and really speaks to all the storylines. They're all watered down into something more filmable, while also adding filler and the "return to normalcy" due to having to have each of the main cast members appear fairly regularly for at least the first four agonizingly drawn out seasons, but by the time the last season rolled around I was so checked out that I just couldn't give two shits anymore. It's ironic because all I kept reading about this series was how it was so different from regular TV and it had the bravery to do really big things, but in fact it was practically reading off of TVTropes.org. The whole plumber business really pushed me away and was the beginning of the end.

Aimed at adults. Fine for most teens.
Either way is fine. I just wouldn't go back and forth until one is done. I did TV first.

The show sucked. Books are superior.
