"The Princess Bride" was supposedly written by S. Morgenstern and abridged by William Goldman, in what he called the "good-parts version". However, Goldman was actually the sole creator of the novel--he simply pretended that it was by a mythical man from a mythical land (Morganstern of Florin) and that he was merely abridging it. This has confused many people, who spend time looking for the "unabridged" version, when it simply doesn't exist.
The princess bride is a book writen by William Goldman (pen name; S. Morgenstern). It was eventually made into a movie. I suggest you read the book and see the movie!
