If you're willing to go a bit darker and more atmospheric, 'The Tea Dragon Society' by Katie O'Neill isn't a saga in the traditional action sense, but it's a connected universe of gentle, heartwarming stories about young people learning trades, caring for magical creatures, and discovering their place. The world-building is incredibly deep and cozy, and the focus on mentorship, memory, and craft is beautiful.
It's the antithesis of a violent epic, but if the 'young person connecting with a magical legacy' part of 'Amulet' resonated with you, this is a stunning, peaceful alternative.

Oh! 'The Raven Cycle' by Maggie Stiefvater. The magic is sleeping under the hills of Virginia, tied to ley lines and a lost Welsh king. The family themes are everywhere: Blue's household of psychic women, Gansey's search for a father figure in Glendower, Ronan's painful inheritance of both dreams and trauma from his father, Adam's struggle to escape his abusive home. The central friend group is a fiercely protective chosen family. Their individual quests for magic are deeply entwined with their familial wounds and desires, making the supernatural hunt feel intensely personal.

I wonder if comic strips collections count? 'Calvin and Hobbes' is the ultimate adventure series, all in the imagination of a boy and his tiger. The vocabulary is rich, the humor is multi-layered, and the adventures—whether time-traveling via a cardboard box or exploring the woods—are timeless. It's a step up in reading complexity due to the sophisticated humor, but the visual component helps.
It teaches that the greatest adventures don't require magic, just creativity. For a gifted or advanced reader in that age group who's bored with simpler prose, 'Calvin and Hobbes' can be a revelation. It's not a chapter book series, but it's a monumental work of serialized adventure.

Has anyone said 'The Rise of the Dragons' by Angie Sage? It's the first in the 'TodHunter Moon' series, set in the world of her 'Septimus Heap' books. It follows a young girl with magical powers on a quest involving ancient artifacts and, of course, dragons. The tone is classic fantasy adventure—prophecies, secret identities, hidden worlds—with that accessible, page-turning quality that makes it so easy to get lost in, just like 'Amulet'.

Go for 'The Cosmic Chronicles of the Mighty Kitten'? No, I'm totally kidding. Wanted to see if anyone was actually reading these lists all the way through.

To offer a different format, the 'Lore' podcast (and its graphic novel adaptations) build a world—our world—out of folklore and dark history. Each episode explores a specific creature or legend, like werewolves or haunted houses, tracing its origins and cultural impact. The 'world' it builds is the hidden, eerie layer of belief that exists underneath our own.
The graphic novel collections present these stories with great art. It's nonfiction, but the act of weaving together historical accounts, folk tales, and superstitions to create a coherent, creepy atmosphere is a form of worldbuilding. For someone who likes the 'hidden history' aspect of 'Amulet'—the idea that our world has a secret, magical past—this is a fascinating rabbit hole to fall into.

The moment I read about Sirius Black's wild, rebellious charm in the 'Harry Potter' books, I couldn't help but imagine someone like Tom Blyth. He's got that untamed energy—sharp cheekbones, dark hair that always looks like he just ran through a windstorm, and eyes that flicker between mischief and melancholy. Blyth in 'The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes' had a similar vibe—charismatic but unpredictable, like Sirius in his prime.
What seals it for me is how Blyth can switch from playful to intense in a heartbeat. Remember Sirius’s laugh in the books? Blyth’s got that same reckless grin. Plus, he’s lanky but moves with a grace that fits a man who spent years on the run. Honestly, if they ever reboot the Marauders’ era, I’d cast him in a heartbeat.

I'm waiting for my hold on 'Lightfall' to come in. The hype in this thread is real.

I’ve been a huge fan of the 'Amulet' graphic novel series for years, and I remember diving deep into the credits to find out more about its origins. The publisher behind this incredible series is Scholastic, the same powerhouse that brought us 'Harry Potter' and 'The Hunger Games.' Scholastic has a knack for picking up visually stunning and narratively rich stories, and 'Amulet' is no exception. Kazu Kibuishi’s artwork and storytelling are perfectly complemented by Scholastic’s distribution, making it accessible to readers worldwide. If you’re looking for the PDF versions, they’re usually available through Scholastic’s official platforms or affiliated digital retailers.

What's the one with the fox and the moon? 'The Fox and the Forest'? No. 'The Night'? Hmm. My memory's failing. There's a beautiful, quiet fantasy graphic novel about a fox guiding a spirit... can't recall the title. Anyway, for more action, 'Courtney Crumrin' by Ted Naifeh is a dark fantasy series about a girl learning witchcraft. The art is gothic and moody, and the stories are clever and sometimes creepy. It's like if 'Amulet' took place in a Tim Burton-esque suburbia.
