The Princess Bride: The cult classic tale of adventure and fantasy
Autor William Goldmanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 oct 1999
Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father; prepare to die!
Beautiful, flaxen-haired Buttercup has fallen for Westley, the farm boy.
When he departs to make his fortune, she vows never to love another. But when she hears that his ship has been captured by the Dread Pirate Roberts - who never leaves survivors - her heart is broken.
Buttercup's charms draw the attention of the relentless Prince Humperdinck who wants a wife and will go to any lengths to make her his bride. But there are other plans afoot. Plans involving mercenaries, giants, criminal philosophers, villainous counts, and pirates. So begins one of modern storytelling's most beloved tales.

Recenzii
'One of the most laconic, tightly-plotted tales of mythical morality you'll ever read, an anti-establishment satire disguised as a love story, more of a scary tale than a fairy tale'
'There's nothing fluffy about The Princess Bride. The rocket-powered narrative tricks you without being merely tricksy, and is both modern and timeless'
'A funny thriller for readers who are about ten years of age or wish they were ... Readers of a nervous disposition should be prepared to skim rapidly over the Zoo of Death episode or stick to fiction meant for grown-ups'
'A spoof fairytale ... Terrific'
'One of the funniest, most original, and deeply moving novels I have read in a long time' - Los Angeles Times
