| Summary |
In this fabulous edition, three Asterix stories are collected in one volume. In Asterix and the Big Fight, our heroes are caught up in a battle for control of their village. In Asterix in Britain, Asterix and Obelix are called upon to help one little Ancient British village as it struggles to hold out against the Roman invaders. Our heroes rush to assist, even though it means facing fog, rain, warm beer and boiled boar with mint sauce! In Asterix and the Normans, our heroes face a Norman invasion! Can Asterix and his friends teach the Normans the meaning of fear? |
| Asterix and the big fight - The Romans persuade a Gaulish chief to challenge Vitalstatistix to single combat. This poses no threat until Getafix is hit by a flying menhir and forgets how to make the magic potion. |
| Asterix in Britain - The Romans have invaded Britain but one village still holds out against them. At his British cousin Anticlimax's request, Asterix and Obelix set off to help with a barrel full of magic potion. |
| Asterix and the Normans - A group of Vikings comes to Gaul trying to learn what fear is. Their visit coincides with that of a real expert on the subject: Vitalstatistix's trendy nephew fromLutetia, Justforkix. |
