鈥淭his is my favourite book in all the world, though I have never read it鈥�. When Goldman discovers The Princess Bride by S Morgenstern is not the swashbuckling fantasy his father read him as a child, but is in fact a patchy and extensive historical satire, he sets out to create the 鈥淕ood Parts鈥� version鈥�

A tale of true love and high adventure featuring a fighting giant that loves to rhyme, a swordsman on the ultimate quest for revenge, a pirate in love with a princess, a princess in love with a farm boy and a prince in love with war.

First a novel, then a film, now an audio experience:

The Best Bits of the Good Parts Version by Stephen Keyworth.

A two-part dramatisation of swashbuckling adventure plus five bitesize backstories which can be enjoyed as stand-alone stories or to enhance your experience of the drama.

Bitesize Backstories: The Prince

Prince Humperdinck loves nothing more fighting and wars. But when he realises his father is dying, it鈥檚 time to find him a suitable bride.
