A review by wyrmbergmalcolm
Asterix and Son by Albert Uderzo
5.0
A bright and cheerful book featuring Asterix and Obelix trying to look after an abandoned baby that kept getting access to the magic potion.
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.
