What are some book series like Harry Potter [quaint, pleasant, deep lore] but less childish and bigoted? (lemmy.world)

Martha Wells. 'Death of the Necromancer' is a stand alone. Thief and his actress mistress are on a course of vengeance, get side tracked by evil. 'The Wizard Hunters' is the first book of a follow up trilogy featuring their daughter. First book is 1890's tech plus magic, and the trilogy is WW1 level tech. Airships and ocean liners.
