Also, as much as I love high seas and pirates, I've never been high on pirate literature outside of Swift, Defoe, etc. Any good pirate books?
Have you ever read James Clavell Freauxzen? If not Taipan might work here, though not straight up pirate in nature. Setting is opium running Era of Hong Kong getting started. He's a superb author, guy who wrote Shogun, which I'm sure you've seen the movie/mini series if nothing else.

Read Shogun, never dug too much int Clavell after that. It was a bit of a chore, but I did enjoy it.
I'll look into that one, good call.
