If you enjoyed the movie, you'll certainly enjoy listening to Rob Reiner, the movie's director, read the book. Fairy tale collides with reality in this adventure about a beautiful maiden who must be rescued from her prince. Everything William Goldman liked about S. Morgenstern's original is here: good guys, bad guys, sword fighting, revenge, romance, and even "rodents of unusual size." Join Buttercup the beautiful maiden, Westley the plucky farm boy, Inigo Montoya the embittered swordsman, Prince Humperdinck the scheming villain, and many other characters in this swashbuckling tale of good-natured silliness. This is a true keepsake for devoted fans and an absolute treasure for those lucky enough to discover it for the first time.
