Asterix, the Gaul is back for more funny, fast-paced adventure in this cheeky and energetic comic, the New York Times bestselling thirty-sixth Asterix album.

Julius Caesar has finished writing the history of his campaigns in Gaul. His publisher, Libellus Blockbustus, foresees a huge success ... but there's a snag. The chapter about Caesar's defeats by the indomitable Gauls of Armorica. Cut it, Blockbustus advises, and everyone will believe that Caesar conquered all Gaul!

Or will they? Newsmonger and activist Confoundtheirpolitix takes the chapter to Asterix's village. Can the Gauls make sure the truth is revealed?

Multi-million selling Asterix is much loved across the world, perfect for children age 7-11 and hilarious for kids and parents alike. Following in the footsteps of Goscinny and Uderzo, the thirty-sixth Asterix album by Ferri and Conrad is a number 3 New York Times bestselling title.

Editorial Reviews

Review

A brilliant addition to the Asterix family by Jean-Yves Ferri and illustrated by Didier Conrad. Perfect for children and adults alike, it's a book which I have no doubt will have you clutching your sides with laughter as you follow Asterix and Obelix on their latest adventure.―The Bookbag

The humour, married with the most intricate of details tells the 'real' story of Julius Caesar's defeat at the hands of the Gauls. Asterix, that feisty little Gaul, has transcended the ages!―Natasha Radford, The Best New Children's Books Guide

The artwork is very polished and dynamic. It looks just as good as any previous Asterix book, and one would have to be a real aficionado to tell it apart from Albert Uderzo's work. As for the writing, the story is on a par with many of the better books [...] it would appear that Asterix and Obelix will be entertaining children and adults for many, many years to come.―Frank Plowright, Slings and Arrows Graphic Novel Guide

I would recommend this story to adventure fans everywhere.―Lotus, The Guardian Children's Books Young Reviewers

Following in the footsteps of Goscinny and Uderzo, this is just as good as the originals and a delight to have a new Asterix story. The storyline is as funny as ever and the illustrations by Didier Conrad are spot on―Parents In Touch

Fast paced and extremely cheeky and funny with some brilliant digs and in-jokes about everything from politics to the press.―Read It Daddy

Didier Conrad's illustrations are absolutely fantastic and guarantee a lovely continuity of the series, especially if you're an Asterix fan. I thought the core of the story was brilliant.―School Librarian

Asterix is a series which takes some liberties with historical fact, using the two thousand year gap between the time of the Roman Empire and the present day to great comic effect―Aberdeen Press & Journal

An energetic story with some very bad/good jokes, and just enough silly Roman-bashing, it's just the sort of thing we Asterix fans love―THE INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY

A real treat ... the new books will appeal to young readers, for whom it will be, hopefully, just the beginning―School Librarian

About the Author

Rene Goscinny was born in Paris in 1926, and spent most of his childhood in Argentina, before eventually moving to Paris in 1951. He died in 1977. Albert Uderzo was born in 1927 in a small village in Marne, France. He met Rene Goscinny in 1951 and on 29 October 1959 their most famous creation, Asterix,made his first appearance on page 20 of PILOTE. ASTERIX THE GAUL, their first album, was published in 1961 and there have now been 35 Asterix albums.

Illustrator Didier Conrad was born in Marseille in 1959. He moved to America after his style got him noticed by Disney and Dreamworks, and in 1996 he designed the characters and storyboard for the 2000 animated film THE ROAD TO EL DORADO. Jean-Yves Ferri lives in the Ariège area of south-western France. Before writing the 35th Asterixalbum, he worked on the famous series Le Retour à la Terre, as well as the adventures of a police officer named Aimé Lacapelle.

5.0 out of 5 stars Asterix at his finest

I've been a fan of these comics from the States ever since I was a kid. The artwork is aesthetic, the humor is relatable and the stories are engaging, even with so many similar elements from book to book. Surprisingly complex and taught me a lot about ancient history when I was growing up. Once you're hooked, you'll never tire of watching the Gauls beat the Romans up time and again. May these grand adventures never come to an end!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another fun and witty Asterix and Obelix book
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2017
Verified Purchase
As usual, another fun adventure for the main characters: Asterix and Obelix (with Dogmatix). As the title states, the story is centered around a scroll that concerns the undefeated Gaulish village that Asterix and Obelix live in, that Julius Caeser wants destroyed. Like the preceding books before (and hopefully after), there is plenty of jokes (some punny and some quite discrete), roman soldier bashing, and always a feast (for the Gauls) celebrating their victory once again!

Reviewed in the United States on December 21, 2018

So I have been a lifelong fan of Asterix. Anyone who is, cannot but buy one. So I did. The drawing, the detail, the evocativeness of the Gaul province, Romans and all the beloved characters is still the same as ever. The story (and strangely the dialogues/translation) is not as spiffy as ever though. Still, a good addition to my collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars ... cynical, acerbic and brilliant ...
Reviewed in India on March 2, 2020

... a very interesting and a brilliant read . the new authors are certainly living up to the reputation of the two great Masters. Asterix comics have always been my all time favorite. However, if you are new to the folk , i would strongly suggest that Asterix comics are meant for people who think more and to get a great experience, one must be well read to understand the references. The humor is not mere slapstick, it is laced with criticism of the the follies of human nature . In this work , the Authors expose the corruption within the media and publishing houses who 'create' heroes by indulging in 'selective truth' , a poison far more worse that 'fake news' . This is a work to be enjoyed by kids and cherished by adults alike !!!! Kudos !!!!
