The beloved novel that spawned the cult classic film. Embark on a tale of true love and swashbuckling adventure like no other.

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.

        • Tina Whitehas quoted8 years ago
          When I was twenty-six, my first novel, The Temple of Gold, was published by Alfred A. Knopf. (Which is now part of Random House which is now part of R.C.A. which is just part of what’s wrong with publishing in America today which is not part of this story.)

          “Why do you wear a mask and hood?” Fezzik asked.

          “I think everybody will in the near future” was the man in black’s reply. “They’re terribly comfortable.”
