Summary: Favorite story
Review: I love The Princess Bride since I watched the movie some years ago. I remember it as a very funny, romantic and adventourous one.So, without a second thought, I bought this book and, from story side, my opinion still the same. Except... I know, Mr. Goldman did a very good job in abridging the heavy book, which if I ever got the change to read the real Mogernstern's, if the description is right, I will throw it or put it somewhere I won't see. But, there are something I still want to know in detail like Westley's youth story, since he is the main goodlooking hero character, it is reasonable to be wanting to know more of him, not just about Fezzik and Inigo. So despite of the story, which I am gladly give a 5 star, I gave Mr. Goldman's a 4 (and a half, but there's no halves in comment tool). And I also very much want to read the rest of Buttercup's Baby. The first chapter is very intriqing.

Summary: Great
Review: One of the greatest books i have ever read. It si truly amazing. There is so many aspects to it that make it what it is. How there is love, action, death, pain, captures, and escapes. William Goldman does a great job putting all of these ascpets into this book with out making it too complex or confusing. The moive is one of the best ever made, but it fail is comparison to this masterpiece of a book. I highly recommend this book, if not more then anyting I have ever read. Read it, you will be truly spellbound

Summary: Everything you could ever ask for in a book
Review: This book is astounding, it is written in a unique form and touches every emotion of the reader. It is funny, romantic, adventerous, whimsical, deep, sad, lighthearted and passionate. It touches every aspect of what makes a book good, wether your into adventure, romance, humor etc. or anything for that matter, this book is for you, The characters are one of kind, and you get a great sense of who they are.This isnt just your average fairytale, its one with a brillant twist. This book also conveys many indepth messages to the reader, about the concept of life, death and pain. How life isnt fair, and that if you put your heart and sole into a cause you can triumph, There is always hope. I believe the book is 10 times better then the movie, not that the movie isnt good, but the book has so much more to it then the movie does. If your looking to read a REALLY good book. Pick up "The Princess Bride".

Summary: Will the princess be the bride?
Review: Although i have seen the move "THE PRINCESS BRIDE" over and over again, i still have enjoyed it each time. It is a movie to be enjoyed by all ages, and how ever old you are, this film will make you cry, laugh and sigh all in 89 minutes! lol The fencing, revenge, true love, escapes and the feats of bravery in this film are incredibly "inconcievable. <--- if you have seen the film, you will understand what i'm talking about!
Although i havnt been able to get my hands on the novel of 'THE PRINCESS BRIDE' it is on the top of my list of priorities! I well and truly recommend this film to anyone who has a passion for love, intrigue and fire swamps! THE END.

Summary: Great book!
Review: I loved this book. If you've seen the movie, you mostly know the plot. If you haven't seen the movie, what is WRONG with you? The book is hillariously written, entwining the story of the author's life and the fable, and the juxtoposition of the two is phenomenal. Finally, though, the joy of this book is its humor and swash-buckling plot line. I read it in an afternoon or two. I simply could not put it down. It's a great story and great read, well worth your time.

Summary: One of my favorite books!
Review: I just love this book! I grew up with the movie, and almost a year ago, I found the book, and gave it as a gift to almost all of my girls (friends). And then like three days ago, I found out it's all a lie, the whole book is fiction, including when he tells about his family and the lawsuits and the "actual" places of Florin and Guilder. THERE WAS NEVER AN S. MORGENSTERN!!! I still love the book though, and now I know Goldman is a genius, he is either the most convincing author I have ever read, or I am just really gullible, lol. Okay, yes, definately read the book.

Summary: I admit I was tricked :)
Review: This is actually two stories in one and that made the book so much greater for me. I'm a little chagrined to admit that Goldman actually almost convinced me that an S. Morgenstern wrote the book. I KNEW there was no such country as Florin but Goldman's so convincing! And I just found out the guy doesn't even have a son! The book was even funnier when I reread it with this in mind. Talk about a multi-layered book! Great characters, great plot. I like the book better than the movie which is funny considering that Goldman wrote both the novel and the screenplay. This is a childhood story for both adults and kids and I highly recommend it to anybody interested in fantasy and satire.

Summary: Just see the movie....
Review: I read this book because I was a GREAT fan of the movie and I always thought the books were better than the movies. But this book proved me wrong. Better just to stick to the movie and enjoy that. They definetly made the movie more exciting. Plus in this book Buttercup didn't even love Westley at first! She suddenly fell deeply in love with him because she became jealous that the Countess loved him! Well anyway if you do decide to read the book, it explains in much more detail about some parts in the book (Like that Vizzini was hired by Humperdinck to kill Buttercup and all that stuff). All in all....stick to the movie!!
