The Sea Lord Chronicles by David Healey is a young adult adventure series set on the open ocean. The books feature naval action, shipboard intrigue, and the kind of seagoing danger that fans of Patrick O’Brian or the Horatio Hornblower books will recognize, scaled for a younger audience.
First Voyage (2012) introduces the main characters and setting, while Ship of Spies (2014) adds espionage to the mix. The two books offer a lighter, more accessible style than Healey’s military thrillers, aimed at younger readers who enjoy historical adventure.
