A review by wyrmbergmalcolm
Asterix in Corsica by René Goscinny, Albert Uderzo
5.0
Another kidnapping that see's the Gauls accompany an individual to his home, this time in Corsica. Another amusing adventure where the characters have trouble pronouncing Bonywasawarriorwayayix's name.
These books are full of bright, fun and delightful characters who go on various adventures and get to beat up a bunch of Roman soldiers. Accompanying the story and the characters is a plethora of clever puns and word play that the translators should get a medal for. There are always a few gags or phrases in Latin that may mean nothing to the non-Latin speakers (such as myself) but Google can lend a helping hand there.
