Something similar to PS Powers Young Ancients series?

Hello!

I’m looking for something similar to PS Powers’ Young Ancients series. The only thing else I request is that the main character be far less insufferable. If you’ve read it, then you definitely know what I mean. I liked the world, the magic, and some of the characters some of the time. I really disliked the absurd over the top obliviousness of the protagonist, and the sex stuff was, umm, odd.

I only read up to Slave Line and they changed protagonists after that, and what was left of my interests just withered away completely.

Thanks!
