Product Description
Paperback. Pub Date: October 2007 Pages: 512 in Publisher: Harcourt William Goldman's modern fantasy classic is a simple exceptional story about quests - for riches. revenge. Power. And of course true love - that's thrilling and timeless . Anyone who lived through the 1980s may find it impossible - inconceivable. even - to equate The Princess ide with anything other than the sweet. celluloid romance of Westley and Buttercup. but the film is only a fraction of the ingenious storytelling you ' ll find in these pages. Rich in character and satire. the novel is set in 1941 and framed cleverly as an aidged retelling of a centuries-old tale set in the fabled country of Florin that's home to Beasts of all natures and descriptions. Pain. Death. ave men. Coward men. Strongest men. Chases. Escapes. Lies. Truths. Passions.

Elizabeth (USA: MD) (2010/04/28):
This is really quirky..and I only recently found out that there ISN'T an unabridged version. Or a sequel. (at least not that I've been able to find). The whole book is based on a nonexistent book. I like the movie better...this one is a bit ADHD for me
