    Earthsea has some of the best world building of all time, but I’m not sure I’d say it was written for grade schoolers.

      I feel like Earthsea is appropriate for middle-school-aged kids (so like 11-14ish), right? Maybe our definitions of “grade schoolers” is different, but I was trying to give examples for a wide range of ages

        Actually that’s totally fair. There’s just some heady concepts in there, it certainly makes HP look much more childish and goofy.
