The Princess Bride (Paperback, New edition)

American writer William Goldman's The Princess Bride is the result of a huge labour of love. He fell in love with Morgenstern's 'classic tale of true love and high adventure' when he was ill as a child. In 1973 he produced his abridged version which concentrates on the fantasy and adventure elements of the original, following the fortunes of wonderful characters such as the mighty Fezzik, Prince Humperdinck and Buttercup, the 'beautifulest' lady in the world. This cult book defies category - thriller, fairy tale, adventure, love story - and is by turns scary, funny and magical. Brilliant stuff. (Kirkus UK)

When William Goldman first published 'The Princess Bride' in 1973, he had no idea that over the next 25 years it would go on to sell an average of 40,000 copies a year in paperback. This is a new edition of his cult classic, a story of pirates, evil princes, sorcerers, and true love.
