Asterix and The Great Divide: A Village Torn Apart!
Two rival chieftains divide a Gaulish village with a political ditch, separating left from right. But love blossoms between Histrionix and Melodrama, the chieftains’ children, who seek Asterix, Obelix, and Getafix’s help to mend the divide.
The sinister Codfix plots to marry Melodrama, adding intrigue to the chaos. Can our heroes reunite the village against Caesar’s Roman threat? Getafix experiments with new magic potions to aid the cause!

What They're Saying
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
