@Rellwood - you don't have to create saved searches, but you do have to formulate the search expressions.
You can make use of the Tag browser to create multi term searches. The Virtual library dialogue has links to assist creating searches based on Author, Tags, Series and Publishers, as well as Saved Searches if you have any.
I found the Advanced Search feature useful in learn about calibre search expressions.
Once you have a search expression in the search bar that does what you want then, if you create a new VL its search expression will default to what's in the search bar. All you have to do is to give it a name.
