    Westley, I think I love you, but I wanna know for sure...

    It’s inconcievable! How can true love survive so much! The story is jam-packed with humor, high adventure and some very eccentric characters. I dare you not to fall for Westley; the best knight dressed all in black ever in a fairytale!

    The Princess Bride

    Whilst many have tried and failed to write a modern fairytale for adults, Goldman has succeeded. He has created a magical, funny and, of course, romantic novel.
