  • Inconceivable not to pick up this book

    Adriana H. - 1 year 6 months ago

    This book has it all: Rodents of Unusual Size, a Pit of Despair, the most beautiful woman in the world, a six-fingered swordsman and a dread pirate. When Buttercup is forced to marry Prince Humperdinck, she does not know that his proposal is the first step in a plan to kill her, pin the blame on a neighboring country and start a war. Buttercup also doesn't know that her true love, who she believes dead, will not let that happen. This book is hysterically funny. Every version of it is worth owning: the wonderful movie, the audio book narrated by the film's director Rob Reiner, the movie soundtrack by Dire Straits' Mark Knopfler and, of course, this incomparable book with only "the good parts."

  • The classic love story by William Goldman

    smith S. - 3 years 5 months ago

    The Princess Bride is one of my all-time favorite movies and I am finally getting around to reading the book. Since the story is already familiar to me I am enjoying it in a different format. I find that as I am reading the book I am hearing it in the voices of the actors who played each character in the movie. The other interesting thing is that this edition contains commentary and background information by William Goldman that supplement what I already knew about the book and story. It is tremendously fun and a great read!

  • Inconceivable!

    Allie L. - 5 years ago

    It's an adventure, a love story, and, at times, very funny. This book is meant for the young and old. If you like fairy tales or just a good action story then this is what you are looking for. It will make you fall in love with Westley and Buttercup and root for Inigo and Fezzik. It is my all-time favorite book.
