Why not plagiarize a few books, combine them, publish and retire?

Why not just be rich?

What makes you think you're clever enough to plagiarize some folks and get away with it?

Colleges call it "adaptation". Hollywood calls them movies.

Look up Kaavya Viswanathan, who got eternally fucked for rewording like 800 words of prose total even though the rest of her book was original. She got fucked by the media, fucked by her publisher and fucked by God when he killed both her parents a few years later. I'd rather not risk doing that to myself.
