Summary

In ancient Rome, the slaves are revolting… and not only that, they’ve stolen Julius Caesar’s own galley, the finest warship in the Roman navy. Under their heroic leader Spartakis, the former galley slaves make for the little Gaulish village where Julius Caesar’s old enemies Asterix and Obelix live - only to find the place in crisis, for Obelix, after drinking the druid Getafix’s magic potions on the sly, is first turned to stone and then reverts to childhood.

Critics Review

A cartoon drawn with such supreme artistry, and a text layered with such glorious wordplay, satire and historical and political allusion that no reader should ever feel like they’ve outgrown it.–TIME OUTThe Asterix books represent the very summit of our achievement as a literary race. In Asterix one finds all of human life. The fact that the books were written originally in French is no matter. I have read them all in many languages and, like all great literature, they are best in English. Anthea Bell and Derek Hockridge, Asterix’s translators since the very beginning, have made great books into eternal flames.–THE TIMES
