Asterix and the Roman Agent

Rene Goscinny
Purchase this title at B&N

Asterix and Obelix are back, and this time Caesar, desperate to crush the final stronghold of Gaulish resistance, releases a slick-talking prisoner and tells him he'll have his freedom if he can find some way to bring the Gaulish village under control. Can slick talking and manipulation succeed where everything else has failed? As usual, it's an amusing, if somewhat shallow and predictable, story with great wordplay. It's easy, it's fun, you'll like it.
