“Obelix dancing flamenco round a campfire: if you grew up on Asterix, you’ll want your children to see this. The name puns, from Chief Huevos y Bacon down, work on both generations.”
One small hostage, one huge tantrum, one very long trip to Spain.
Asterix in Spain is a classic comic adventure about taking a young Iberian hostage home to Hispania.
In Hispania, one Iberian village is resisting Julius Caesar, just like Asterix's. So the Romans seize Pepe, the chief's little son, as a hostage. The Gauls rescue him, but Pepe proves a handful, so Asterix and Obelix set off to take him home. Ahead lie tourists, flamenco and a wild aurochs in the arena.
Why readers love it
- Pepe, a pint-sized terror, holds his breath until Obelix is sent out to buy fish.
- A campfire night where Obelix joins the flamenco dancing to cries of "Olé!"
- Name puns galore, like Chief Huevos y Bacon, whose name means eggs and bacon.
By René Goscinny · Illustrated by Albert Uderzo · English · Asterix series
