The Neverending Story
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.
Â
Anyone who lived through the 1980s may find it impossible€"inconceivable, even€"to equate The Princess Bride 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 €œabridged€ retelling of a centuries-old tale set in the fabled country of Florin that's home to €œBeasts of all natures and descriptions. Pain. Death. Brave men. Coward men. Strongest men. Chases. Escapes. Lies. Truths. Passions.€Â
