Oh I envy you being able to read Patrick O'Brian for the first time. I firmly believe that the Aubrey/Maturin series is the greatest work of modern English literature.
I do know that the movie is actually based on the plot of The Far Side of the World, which is actually the tenth novel, and that the stole some of the best anecdotes from various novels. For example, the "lesser of two weevils" gag is from The Fortune of War, which is the sixth book.
Not sure what advice to give you before you embark on your journey but there's two major paths: using references to understand everything, and learning along with Maturin (PO'B uses Maturin to explain some of the more esoteric concepts and terms of square-rigged sailing). I wrote the following in a previous Reddit post:
>In Master and Commander, the first of Patrick O'Brian's brilliant Aubrey/Maturin series (which may very well be the best-written English-language books post-WWII), we are introduced to Stephen Maturin, the perpetual land-lubber who acts as a guide for the reader to the more obscure jargon used by sailors -- especially that of the Royal Navy during the heights of the Age of Sail.
>When Maturin is being given a tour of the HMS Sophie, his first ship deployment, he becomes perplexed by the language being tossed at him and asks, "You could not explain this maze of ropes and wood and canvas without using sea-terms, I suppose? No, it would not be possible. ... No; for it is by those names alone that they are known."
>And that is how it is with the language of sailing; like learning a foreign language, one must become familiar with its terms and jargon for there is no other language to define it.
As for references, there are two major ones: "A Sea of Words", which is a dictionary and general reference for sailing/nautical, naturalism, medicine, politics, and sometimes foreign-language dictionary, though sometimes it comes woefully short on obvious terms; and "Harbors and High Seas", an atlas which maps out the various locations and journeys of Aubrey's missions.
Enjoy! And feel free to ask me any questions regarding the series. I've got whole passages memorized lol
EDIT: I forgot to mention my favorite fact: Patrick O'Brian never stepped aboard a sailing vessel...
I have some Florida brxlz (off brand small LEGO) in mine. They are an absolute pain to build but worth the effort. Also a national championship football, a neon gator head sign. But probably my favorite is some wooden blocks that have a gator head and spells go gators. Here’s a link I bought them on vacation in Gatlinburg up near you.

Super good read
I assume you don't want a college textbook on game theory? I might be able to dig up some old PDF notes from Rush's (the long time professor of Microeconomics, if you didn't attend UF) class on intro game theory stuff. Here are a couple books that looked accessible:
Introducing Game Theory: A Graphic Guide
The Joy of Game Theory
Disclaimer, I have not read either of these.
highly recommend these things:

This is the closest I got before I hit another hard wall.

I wouldn't call it a sudden downfall. There's already a year old book out there titled "Decade of Dysfunction".
Now get him some of these for tailgates
I can recommend this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0199218463/ref=mp_s_a_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1523977648&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65&keywords=game+theory+an+introduction&dpPl=1&dpID=51-1iVAIgiL&ref=plSrch
It’s (as the title says) a very entry level introduction to game theory. Explains stuff like the prisoners dilemma. It’s more of a coffee table book, you don’t really need to read it front to back, it’s one of those things where you can read a chapter at a time and jump around.
