I'm going to guess between human age-200.

In book 8 Ax states something like "if I live to be 200 years old I will still be known as Elfangor's brother."  However, in my opinion, its impossible to tell whether he means that as a literal age or not.  At that time in the series, Ax was not known for speaking non-literally, however the sentence lends itself well to a non-literal interpretation.  It could go either way.

However in MM4, he states that the dome has enough energy to last 100 years, and that he could live out his lifein the dome.  However, his tone is rather sarcastic and bitter in those parts of the novel, and he has begun to question his own sanity, so again its hard to say whether or not he is being literal.  And I don't know if KAA wrote that or a ghost writer.

I would guess it is at least a little bit longer than a humans.  We never get t a literal age on Alloran, but he was a full prince, I believe, in 1966.  If we assumed he was super awesome and climbed the ranks of the military like mad, id guess he's about 20 based on the fact that Ax is an aristh at 13.  At the time of him coming to earth that would put him at 50ish.  And Ax never described him as an old man, he always acted like he was a prime andalite warrior specimen, so their lifespan has to be a bit longer than a human's.

edit: I reread HBC, in 1966 Alloran was NOT a prince, he was still a warrior.  But he was made War Prince by the time he went to the Hork-Bajir planet.

Okay, I have a question.

In which book did Rachel express distaste/disgust for people who commit suicide?

That would probably be #17. I think that's the only time it's brought up.

When Rachel were on the Blade ship in #54 where did she hide? I don't really remember if it's said how she hid and where. Was she in morph or what?


I'm from Germany, so don't wonder, if my sentences are a bit weird sometimes...

Here's an excerpt from book 54 that will hopefully answer your question Canicula.

I could see. Not well, confused, distorted, my
visual cortex still more flea than human. I was
still on the bridge of the Blade ship. I was actually
crouched beneath an unoccupied control station.

It was like hiding under a desk. Fortunately
it was designed for a Hork-Bajir body, so there
was some room.

I have another one.

Does anyone know what font the Classic books were printed in?

I also have a question. Did the animorphs ever specifically agree to not use oatmeal again?

No but I think we can safely say they agreed (silently or otherwise) not to use it again. Perhaps because it was essentially a drug that induces psychosis in Yeerks, or maybe the ridiculous fact that it was oatmeal just meant that KA decided never to mention it again.

Rachel -> African Elefant
Tobias -> Cat
Cassie -> Horse
Jake -> Dog
Marco -> ?

I just wanted a quick confirmation, it is in 23, the Pretender, that Tobias (and by extension, Ax) finds out that Elfangor is Tobias' father, correct?

I don't know why I thought it was earlier in the series.
