Synopsis
Fans of Asterix, rejoice: here are three fabulous Asterix stories in one book! In Asterix and the Cauldron, Asterix and Obelix will try anything--even robbery--to replace some mysteriously missing money. Asterix in Spain features the daring rescue of Chief Huevos y Bacon's son--but returning him to Spain is more than the Gauls have bargained for! And in Asterix and the Roman Agent, a sneaky spy named Tortuous Convolvulus tries to turn our heroes against each other!

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 October 29, 1959, their most famous creation, Asterix, made his first appearance on page 20 of Pilote. Asterix the Gaul, their first book, was published in 1961, and there have now been 34 Asterix books.
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
