Books like Amulet, by age
Finished Amulet? Here are 8 series to try next, grouped by age and kind: the same age as amulet; a bit older, when they're ready; the same kind of book as amulet. Each one says why it's here and links to the books in order with a checklist.
The picks come from what the series share with Amulet (fantasy, adventure, family) and the next reads its own page names. No one paid to be here and there are no shop links. Checked October 29, 2026.
