Review:
It is unusual for me to find a book where the movie version of it is tied in terms of quality, but this one definitely done that. The asides Goldman (and his alter-ego S. Morgenstern) put in perfectly align with the grandpa/grandson parts of the movie and it’s just as quotable. I loved the background into Fezzik and Inigo, which really explained their motives and how they ended up with Vizzini, I thought that was missing in the mvie.
The only thing I didn’t like were the parts where Westley slaps Buttercup (happens twice), which really rubbed me the wrong way and dropped the rating from a 5 to a 4.
