But I think a lot of people are reading "late thirties" as "older" because there aren't all that many actual fifty-year-old or sixty-year-old characters protagging around. Late thirties is then relatively old, in comparison to the majority? I am not, of course, certain of my thesis here. But it strikes me as possible, at least.
(I'm twenty-seven. Already it is too late for me to be a Chosen One. I'd like to have more Istas and the like to grow into...)
