So I'm writing a fanfiction as some of you know about Alvin's childhood. And I'm in need to know how old some of you think he is in book eight... Around 30 or 40?

I'm not familiar enough with the later books to tell... (Damn you budget!) but from the impressions I got from the first books, I would say he is a lot older than we think he is. Not sure exactly, but quite a bit older than most would imagine.

That's what I was thinking but I had a great idea and if I go with this it's ruined but I don't want it to be innacurate and I just *silently sobs in pillow*

If it's never actually revealed, you can probably take a good deal of artistic licensing. It probably won't matter much. Just whatever you think.

That's true. Plus I mean.. My story is possible but very unlikely anyway so...

I always thought he'd be somewhere in his mid-thirties, judging from the books' drawings/descriptions of him. I can't see him much older than that.
old man Alvin would be weird.

I would guess maybe 40s, or a bit older. XP
