Castaways of the Flying Dutchman is the first of a projected series about the adventures of Ben and Ned. Throughout the novel, Jacques includes numerous hints about stories that precede this one, like their adventures at the Battle of Trafalgar and in the American Civil War, and of adventures yet to come that will no doubt provide fruitful fodder for storytelling. The second book in the series is scheduled for publication in 2003 and is titled The Angel's Command: A Tale From Castaways of the Flying Dutchman.

Jacques has also produced an audio version of Castaways of the Flying Dutchman, narrated by Jacques himself with a cast of British actors.
