Ferry from stockholm to tallinn

Will be in Stockholm September and I am planning on taking the ferry from Stockholm to Tallinn, walk in Old Town a few hours and then catch the ferry to Helsinki in the evening. Should I book my ferry tickets here in the USA online? Which website should I buy my tickets from? Anyone knows what time the ferries arrive in Tallinn and then what times for those going to Helsinki? Thanks!
