Call of the Sea is Andrew Wareham’s longest series at fifteen books, published between 2021 and 2025. The series tracks a single sailor’s career from his first posting through a wide range of maritime adventures that take him from English waters to Africa, the Mediterranean, Denmark, and the Pacific.

The book titles map the protagonist’s journey: The First Lieutenant establishes his early career, The Africa Hand and The Middle Sea mark different postings, and later entries like Saturn Rising and Sick and Hurt follow him through the pressures of extended service. The series captures the rhythm of naval life — long voyages, foreign ports, shipboard politics, and the constant danger of the sea.
