Oh no ... I really wouldn't judge the books by the show ... very different feels, and the books are an old classic too. There are three books, and they're pretty episodic in their structure, so you could give the first one a shot, read the first few chapters and decide from there. Even just reading the first book will let you know what they're like. And from memory, they're not long at all.
