What you are asking is complex if you have a LIBRARY (AKA lots of books collected). The kind most of the regulars have.

1)What unread series do you want to read from (that you have a ebook in Calibre).

2)do you also keep a wishlist ('empty book') in Calibre.
3)Do you mark the 'don't continue with these' (not my cuppa, stinker...)

I use a 2 step, just to browse candidates

Code:
#finished:false and (formats:EPUB or formats:Mobi or formats:AZW3)
The reason for formats is the wishlist entries have 'none', so are excluded.

Step 2 is to sort by series (there is no 'lowest' value search available)
