Easily the best childrens book ever written!July 27, 1999 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
As an Asterix fanatic, I have read each and every one time and time again. Although all Asterix books are of the highest calibre, Asterix and the Great Crossing compares to no other. As with all Asterix books, the wit is sharp and intelligent. But here Goscinny and Uderzo seem to bring their magic to another level not seen before in any of the other books. The subtle double entendres and the blissful ignorance of Asterix and Obelix on discovery of the New World makes you laugh out loud and you dont stop laughing until you have put the book down for a week. Goscinny and Uderzo also manipulate the plot wonderfully so that the comic potential that the two main characters have are played out to their extreme. Never before have I read a book as funny as this. A book for adults and children alike. An absolute must must buy. If you have never read Asterix before, read this; the perfect introduction.
