If you think you might be interested in this book, do yourself a favor and get the audio book. Many of the Princess Bride cast members are included in the recording. It is incredibly charming.

5* for the audiobook version, as read by Cary Elwes, and featuring Rob Reiner and much of the cast.

Often laugh-out-loud, occasionally sobering (especially re: Andre the Giant and his physical hardships).

Must-read (listen) for any fan of the film.

If you're a fan of The Princess Bride you should read this book. Or rather, you should LISTEN to this book. Cary Elwes takes you behind the scenes through his experience filming The Princess Bride and it is just so much FUN!! And the audiobook is awesome, with most of the main actors voicing their parts in the book. There is quite a bit of gushing from all involved - it's a love letter to the movie - but I enjoyed it. And Cary Elwes is a great narrator. Loved it!
