there is something called WIKIPEDIA which answers ALL questions ! :)
the novels are prequels to the movies and they were written by Rob Kidd ! :)

whatever that something pedia was called mate thanks for kindly sharing...
it's not a reliable source to me, sadly...

therefore at least anyone here who's able to say they read it would give clearer info...

btw... what will be released in june is about the movie... i meant the one before the movie was made.

Haha you two are just not getting each other today :p
I don’t think there was a book before the Movie Tee
If you’re thinking that the movie might have been based on a book, it wasn’t. The movie was inspired by the Disney theme park ride called “Pirates of the Caribbean” ^-^

what don't you get yasir??

let's see..i want to know the movie's history... whether it came from a book... u said it came from a ride somewhere in games sabla... and Nella said someone told her what was going to happen which means there must be a book of it before the movie was released if that was true.
I'm enquiring whether this book exists.

"Pirates of the Caribbean is a dark ride at the Disneyland, Magic Kingdom, Tokyo Disneyland, and Disneyland Paris theme parks that inspired the movie trilogy of the same name. It is one of the most popular and well-known Disney attractions.

During the course of the indoor boat ride, guests float through an immersive, larger-than-life pirate adventure featuring gunshots, cannon blasts, and burning buildings, all set to pirates carousing and pillaging while accompanied by Yo Ho (A Pirate's Life for Me) written by George Bruns and Xavier Atencio."
