Yepper I am a fan. I have the entire 20 book set. I have read up through 16.
The movie is based on book 10.
These are nice to read and the story lines are quite good and accurate for the British Navy in the time period. The stories follow each other and you get to know the characters like personal friends.
I have take almost 3 years to get through book 16. I read other books between.
They have almost no foul language or sexual content so they can be read by anyone who has an interest in old large sailing stories or old naval stories. The violence is kept to a minimum but you know what happened.
