The Princess Bride / William Goldman

The Princess Bride : S. Morgenstern's classic tale of true love and high adventure, the "good parts" version, abridged by William Goldman. 30th anniversary edition. 469 pp.

I have always loved this movie but never gotten around to reading the book. I had a hard time getting into it, because of all of the stuff at the beginning about "William Goldman" and his life and his family, but once I got past that into the adventure story I really enjoyed it. Some of my favorite snappy dialogue ever. And, as a gamer, the Fire Swamp section is really a lot of fun for me.
