A Goodreads user asked Jonathan Stroud:

Will you ever write books where the main characters are adults? Why do you choose teen protagonists now?

Jonathan Stroud My first novel, Buried Fire, had among its protagonists an adult vicar... I'd certainly be up for writing books with grown-up characters if it suited the story. Teens are great, though, because they have a foot in two worlds, and everyone can relate to them.
