William Goldmans beloved story of Buttercup, Westley, and their fellow adventurers.This tale of true love, high adventure, pirates, princesses, giants, miracles, fencing, and a frightening assortment of wild beasts was unforgettably depicted in the 1987 film directed by Rob Reiner and starring Fred Savage, Robin Wright, and others.

Coward men. Strongest men. Chases. Escapes. Lies. Truths. Passions.William Goldman's modern fantasy classic is an exceptional story about questsfor riches, revenge, power, and, of course, true lovethat's thrilling and timeless for readers of all ages.

I'm impressed with this book!

Up until a month or two ago, I've only ever watched the movie and read some of The Princess Bride. Now that I've finished it, I can say that I absolutely loved this book! Characters other than Westley and Buttercup have background stories written about them. The usage of detail is so well thought out, and I loved the mix of adventure and romance. Also this is probably the first book that has ever made me audibly laugh aloud. I highly recommend everyone to give this book a try at least once in their lifetime.
