The Fablehaven, Candy Shop War and Beyonders series', by Brandon Mull. Fantasy, involves children who have to save the world.

Fablehaven -- magical world hidden within the real one, magical beings who by ancient covenant are restricted to certain areas guarded from mundane sight. A secret group wants to free thousands of demons from an ancient inter-dimensional prison.

The Beyonders -- Jason Walker stumbles through a temporary gateway (an imaginative one! he was eaten by a hippo) into an alternate dimension/world named Lyrian. He ends up involved in a plot to overthrow a tyrant wizard King.

The Candy Shop War -- a group of friends get introduced to the magic candy created by an old woman who opened a candy shop. Using the magical effects of the various candies, they end up in a race to protect water from the Fountain of Youth from being abused.

The Heir Chronicles, and The Seven Realms series' By Cinda Williams Chima.

The Heir Chronicles -- a group of hereditary magical "guilds", ruled by the wizards who force warriors to fight in the Tournaments, the outcome of which allocates possession of "The Hoard", a collection of ancient magical artifacts. The main character, last known member of the Warrior Guild (he just found out about this stuff) tries to break this tradition with the help of friends and family.

The Seven Realms -- set in a medieval-style world, the Princess of the Fells fights to retain the power of the throne amongst the petty plots of wizards and the threat of a cruel, power-mad prince who is currently busy slaughtering his brothers for the throne.
