Asterix and Obelix are back! The eagerly awaited new adventure of our Gallic friends is called "Asterix in Italy"! We are in the year 50 B.C. All Italy is occupied by the Romans... All of Italy? No, not completely. Obelix is surprised that by far not only Romans live there, who have to be beaten up with magic powers! Instead, there are many Italians who want to maintain their independence in the Gallic manner. They strictly reject the claim to power of Julius Caesar and his legions. Our favourite heroes Asterix and Obelix plunge into a captivating adventure and discover the extraordinary Italy of antiquity! Jean-Yves Ferri and Didier Conrad have impressively demonstrated their skills with the huge successes "Asterix among the Picts" and "The Papyrus of Caesar". On 19 October, endlic will now be published.
