In the 30th Asterix adventure, Asterix, Obelix, Dogmatix and Cacofonix set out from Gaul to rescue Princess Lemonade who is in mortal danger. With their usual blend of bravado and recklessness, the Gauls create havoc wherever they go, but emerge triumphant at the end of the day.

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.

ASTERIX THE GAUL, their first album, was published in 1961 and there have now been 35 Asterix albums.
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 OUT
The 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
