What are some book series like Harry Potter [quaint, pleasant, deep lore] but less childish and bigoted?
i love asoiaf but it's hard to start rereading atm of course

An obvious choice for me is The Hobbit. It hits a completely different and more adventurous feeling to LoTR, while still hinting at the lore that would follow. Sometimes I think I might prefer to LoTR in general tbh.
